What are the names of the notes on the lines in the bass?
The bass note is the lowest note played (or notated). It is typically notated using a bass clef, which looks similar to:):Bass notes are typically below middle-C. The lines on a bass clef stave stand for the notes G2, B2, D3, F3, A3. One line above the bass stave is middle-C (C4). However, double bass and bass guitar are notated an octave higher than the actual notes played. Therefore, the notes on the bass clef stave written for bass guitar are actually G1, B2, D2, F2, and A2. One line below the bass stave is E1, which is the lowest note on a standard 4-string double bass or bass guitar. A 5-string bass guitar is capable of playing as low as B0.
When you go and octave higher on the piano do you write it the same if you were an octave lower when you are composing a song?
While I do not understand your question, I will try to answer it! You have two clefts, the treble or G cleft and the bass of F cleft. (There are also special clefts which we will not get into.) Together they make up the Grand Staff. OK so far? Those are the notes you play. If the music is above or below the cleft, you will see ledger lines. Those are little lines above or below the cleft lines. Now, Say the composer wants to use the notes at the top of the keyboard for some unknown reason. You will see a little 8 above the Treble cleft signature. That is telling you to shift up an octave. Then the bottom ledger line will no longer mean the E above middle C but the E one octave above that. If you look at a lot of choral music, you will see an 8 below the Treble Cleft Signature on the tenor line. That means the tenors should sing the same notes as the Treble Cleft only one octave lower. You could even put a 16 under the Bass Cleft Signature if you were writing music for a 5 string double bass. It can reach the lowest note on the piano. How else would you indicate it? Can you imagine the ledger lines? I would get confused!

Is A bass clef and a treble clef the same?
Clefs do not have 'sounds'. They are merely tools to indicate where on the musical stave notes are to be placed. However, the treble clef 'places' higher notes than the bass clef. If a clef is placed in the middle of the staff, then the notes that follow that clef are of that clef. For example, if the bass clef is placed on the treble staff, the notes that follow it are to be interpreted as "bass clef" notes and played using lower notes on the piano. The opposite is true if the treble clef is placed on the bass staff.
