I'm in an elementary statistics class right now and we just heard about “levels of measurement” which seem to make these distinctions: your first is the interval scale, and second the ordinal scale.
The "number line with no zero, but a uniquely preferred scale" isn't in that list of measurement types; and it says the "number line with no zero and no scale" is the interval scale.
