The temperature scale that has no negative values is the Kelvin scale, because it has its zero point at the lowest possible measurable temperature (absolute zero).
The similarly based scale using Fahrenheit intervals (degrees) is the Rankine scale. The Kelvin scale starts at (the minimum) absolute zero. (0 K = -273 oC)

What does 22F in a C mean?
Convert the temperature of 22 degrees Fahrenheit into a Celsius scale temperature. 22 degree Fahrenheit = -5.5555556 degree Celsius
200 degree Celsius is hot as 100 degree Celsius?
No. It is hotter. However, it is not twice as hot since the Celsius scale is not absolute - Kelvin is the absolute scale for temperature.
Most nations use what scale of temperature?
The Celsius scale, which was known as the centigrade scale.
What is the difference between Fahrenheit and celsius temperature scale?
Fahrenheit and Celsius scales both measure temperature in "degrees", but the value of a "degree" is different in the two scales. This is because the numerical values for the same temperature are different in each scale. The Fahrenheit scale establishes the freezing and boiling points of water at 32 °F and 212 °F , while the Celsius scale lists these temperatures as 0°C and 100 °C. So a degree Fahrenheit is smaller, only 5/9 as large as a degree Celsius. 1.8 Fahrenheit degrees cover the same temperature scale as 1 Celsius degree. When a very high temperature is expressed in degrees C, it is 1.8 times as hot in Fahrenheit.
What is a temperature scale?
The metric system (SI) measurement of temperature is the "degree Kelvin"(K). These are the same unit as Celsius degrees, except that the Kelvin scale has its lower end at "absolute zero" (-273.15°C) so that a measured temperature is 273.15° higher in K than in Celsius.Hence the freezing point of water at standard pressure is 0° C , or 273.15 K and the boiling point is 100°C or 373.15° K.For everyday usage, the Celsius scale is used. When scientific data is reported, Kelvin is used. Kelvin temperatures do not use the degree mark.
How is degree celsius and temperature related?
degree celsius and temperature are related because temperature is anything is measure of how hot or cold it is degree celsius is the metric unit of temperatureAnswer:I'm not sure what you're asking but . . . Celsius (centigrade) is a scale used to measure temperature (hot & cold). In the U.S. we usually use the Fahrenheit scale, but both scales do the same basic thing -- they measure temperature.Another scale is Kelvin. On the Kelvin scale 0 is absolute zero, meaning there is no longer any temperature.
What is measured by temperature with no degree sign?
No degree sign is used on the Kelvin scale.
What is the degree of hotness or coldness measured on a scale?
temperature
On which temperature scale does 1 degree represent the smallest change in temperature?
The Fahrenheit scale change of 1 degree is smallest when compared to Celsius change. 1.8 degrees Celsius is 1 degree Fahrenheit
What temperature scale on which water freezes at 0 degree boils at 100degree?
The Celsius scale.
What measure temperature?
The basic unit is a Kelvin but it is common to use a degree Celsius. The Kelvin scale is absolute whereas the zero point on the Celsius scale is arbitrary.
Why degree is not written with kelvin scale?
The SI unit of absolute temperature is the Kelvin, not the degree.
What word means degree of temperature?
You just say "degree" followed by the temperature scale, for example, "It was 20 degrees Celsius".
What metric measures temperature?
The basic unit is a Kelvin but it is common to use a degree Celsius. The Kelvin scale is absolute whereas the zero point on the Celsius scale is arbitrary.
What is the scale that water freezes at 32 degrees and boils at 212 degree?
This is the Fahrenheit temperature scale.
What is the scale of celsius?
It is a scale for temperature measurement where zero degree is freezing temperature for water and 100 is its boiling point under atmospheric pressure.
Réaumur temperature scale to Celsius temperature scale?
1 degree Reaumur = 1.25 degrees Celsius (R x 1.25 = Celsius)
