Absolute pressure = Atm+ gauge pressure
Absolute pressure = Atm- vaccum pressure[suction pressure]

Vacuum pressure is nothing but a negative guage pressure.

Gauge pressure is measured w.r.t. atmospheric pressure. It is above or below the atmospheric pressure.

If the pressure is above atmospheric pressure, it is positive gauge pressure and, if it is below atmospheric pressure, it is called Negative gauge pressure.
