Simplistic ELI5 is:

Imagine you have a new white board — This is your app/program that you just started eg MS word.

You are drawing in it — You are writing a word document.

Close –> erase the white board and remove it from the wall.

Task manager close –> Just remove it from the wall because your brother plastered the drawing pane with tape and you cant erase it anymore.

In OS, the thread(white board) which holds the program ie MS Word (drawing) is just killed (removed from the wall) rather than closing (erasing the drawing) and then closing the program.
