No, Celsius is a unit of temperature measurement on the Celsius scale. It is not the opposite of temperature, but a way to quantify it.

What is the opposite of Celsius?

It is an international metric temperature scale on which water freezes at 0° and boils at 100° under normal atmospheric conditions. The term "Celsius" is usually preferred to "centigrade," especially in technical contexts. Until 1948 the scale was known as centigrade when it was renamed in honour of Celsius, though in general usage (for example television weather forecasts) it was still called centigrade until quite recently. Celsius refers to Anders Celsius, the Swedish Astronomer who developed the temperature scale with 100 degrees at the freezing point of pure water (actually its triple point) at normal pressure and 0 degrees at its boiling point. On his death in 1744 Linneaus reversed the scale.

When the temperature in Celsius is doubled from 10 Celsius to 20 Celsius is the temperature doubled on the Fahrenheit scale?

No, when the temperature in Celsius doubles from 10Β°C to 20Β°C, the temperature in Fahrenheit does not double. The relationship between Celsius and Fahrenheit temperatures is not linear, so a doubling in Celsius temperature does not equate to a doubling in Fahrenheit temperature.
