"Biasing" applies to transistor amplifier circuits. Simple amplifier circuits can only amplify positive signals. Negative signals cause the amplifier to shut down. However, AC signals in general have both a positive and a negative part. To allow a transistor to amplify AC, we add a positive voltage to the AC signal. Then after it is amplified, we remove the positive voltage again.

The voltage, ac or dc on the base, compared to the emitter to cause operation of the transistor to conduct to the collector or to the emiiter in a NPN transistor.

Why emitter bias circuit is called self bias?

The emitter bias circuit is called self-bias because the bias voltage across the emitter-resistor is based on the transistor's own characteristics. The bias voltage adjusts itself based on the varying collector current to stabilize the operating point of the transistor. It is a self-adjusting mechanism that helps maintain a stable bias point for the transistor.
