Because it IS a supernova remnant.
It's the visial remains of a star that expolded and was seen in 1054. Designated SN 1054.
In the constellation of Taurus
Yes. The Crab Nebula neutron star. A neutron star found in the middle of the Crab Nebula - a Nebula formed from the 1054 supernova event.
The Crab Nebula is a supernova remnant and pulsar wind nebula.
The discovery of the crab nebula, a supernova remnant, seems to correspond to a bright supernova recorded by Chinese astronomers in 1054. The nebula was later described by John Bevis in 1731.
It's not the same as a supernova--the Crab Nebula is the visible remnant of a supernova event which occurred about 7,500 years ago. The light from the supernova explosion reached the earth and was observed by Chinese and Arab astronomers about 1,000 years ago. The Crab Nebula was the first object to be identified with a supernova which was actually observed during recorded history.

Nebula. Some nebulae are formed as the result of supernova explosions. The material thrown off from the supernova explosion is ionized by the supernova remnant. One of the best examples of this is the Crab Nebula, in Taurus. It is the result of a recorded supernova, SN 1054, in the year 1054 and at the centre of the nebula is a neutron star, created during the explosion.
The Crab Nebula was formed when it's host star exploded as a supernova [See related question]

The crab nebula is the debris formed in the supernova explosion.
