I heard that in 1. PSD there are so called "redlines" (help guides)
and in 2. PSD there are so called "grid". What is the difference between those 2 different guide line types?

Redlining refers to documenting the properties of elements in a design document, typically in red, but these are lines and specifications that you put in manually to specify dimensions, colors, fonts, etc, so that developers can implement the design. It is different from just showing the guidelines you might have used in constructing the design.

Here's an example:



But your document seems to be using only regular guides, not redlining.

There is no difference. They are all guides as far as Photoshop is concerned.

Now you may place guides to indicate a grid layout, as in your second image. But they are still just guides.

(Never head of "redlines" before).
