Numbers can have an absolute magnitude, which means the size of the number whether positive or negative (in other words, 5 or -5 both have an absolute magnitude of 5) but there is no established meaning for "absolute number". Numbers can be a variety of things; they can be real or imaginary, they can be rational or irrational, they can be transcendental, they can be finite or transfinite. But they are not described as absolute (again, except in the contest of absolute magnitude).
the absolute value
Absolute Value
That is called the "absolute value" of a number.
Absolute value is a number's distance from zero on the number line.
The absolute value is a number's distance from zero on a number line. Therefore the absolute value of -31 is 31.
The distance from zero on a number line is called the absolute value.
That's the absolute value.

A number's distance from 0 on a number line is called absolute value. The absolute value of 5 is 5 and the absolute value of -5 is also 5.

Absolute value describes the distance of a number on the number line from 0 without considering which direction from zero the number lies. The absolute value of a number is never negative. The absolute value of 5 is 5.
