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)
An increase in temperature of one degree Celsius is greater than an increase in temperature of one degree Fahrenheit. This is because the Celsius scale has a larger degree increment than the Fahrenheit scale.
The Celsius scale, which was known as the centigrade scale.
No, the "degrees" have the same name but are different sizes. (Celsius degrees are larger intervals than Fahrenheit degrees.) A change of 1 degree Celsius is the same as a change of 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit.

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.
Because when expressing absolute temperature using the Kelvin scale, the unit of temperature is not the "degree", it's the "Kelvin". The "Kelvin" is a unit of temperature equal to one Celsius degree. There's no such thing as a "Kelvin degree".
The Celsius scale.
One degree on the Celsius scale is equivalent to one Kelvin in the metric unit of temperature.
No degree sign is used on the Kelvin scale.
The Fahrenheit scale change of 1 degree is smallest when compared to Celsius change. 1.8 degrees Celsius is 1 degree Fahrenheit
An increase in temperature of one degree Celsius is greater than an increase in temperature of one degree Fahrenheit. This is because the Celsius scale has a larger degree increment than the Fahrenheit scale.
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.
The SI unit of absolute temperature is the Kelvin, not the degree.
You just say "degree" followed by the temperature scale, for example, "It was 20 degrees Celsius".
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.
Thermometers need numbers on a scale to give a temperature reading.
A change of 1.0 degree Fahrenheit is equivalent to a larger temperature change than a change of 1.0 degree Celsius. This is because the Fahrenheit scale has a smaller degree value compared to the Celsius scale.
