Bitcoin core is a wallet program you can use to hold or spend your bitcoin. It is also considered a 'full node,' which means it will download the entire blockchain, as well as any future blocks to keep tracks of all transactions. BCH (bitcoin cash) is a fork of bitcoin, which can occur if enough miners support a change in protocol. In this case, BCH is a hard fork, which split the blockchain into two separate paths and essentially created an altcoin (bitcoin cash).
Bitcoin cash is a cryptocurrency like bitcoin, but it is an altcoin. you cannot use software such as the bitcoin core wallet with bitcoin cash.
