Search Console is reporting 404s for URLs that don't exist on my site. However, GoogleBot seems to be crawling a URL by guessing a page based off of relative paths in my links. For example:

I have a page www.example.com/joe/product/cool-product
It contains a relative link: <a href="/art/modern">modern art</a>

I seem to be getting a lot of 404s in Search Console for www.example.com/joe/product/art/modern
Which doesn't exist and I can only assume the GoogleBot is building this URL from the current page URL and the path in a strange way.

Does this affect my Crawl Budget?

Crawl rate limit is designed to help Google not crawl your pages too
much and too fast where it hurts your server.
Crawl demand is how much Google wants to crawl your pages. This is
based on how popular your pages are and how stale the content is in
the Google index.
Crawl budget is “taking crawl rate and crawl demand together.” Google
defines crawl budget as “the number of URLs Googlebot can and wants
to crawl.”
