The name for the ratio of a diagram measurement to actual measurements is the scale.

The 'scale' of a guitar refers to the average string length between the bridge and the nut of the guitar (this is the average length because intonation at the bridge means that not all the strings are identical in length from nut to bridge).
The scale indicates how many units of length of the actual object are represented by each unit of length in the drawing.

It's called the "scale."
That depends what the scale of the blueprint is !
I believe this means that the length of the strings between the nut and the bridge is 24.75 inches.

The actual size of a double bass does not affect its musical range, but rather the darkness of its tone. What does affect its range is the scale length(the distance between the nut and the bridge). The standard scale length for a double bass is around 43", and an electric is 34". In order for the strings to be tuned to the same pitches, the double bass's strings are much more taught than an electric's to accommodate for the scale length.
