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 term absolute value means that whether the number is positive or negative, you make it into a positive number, so the absolute value of, for example, minus six, is six. Rational number are numbers which can be expressed in the form of a ratio, meaning one integer divided by another integer.
