You can understand it with the help of an example. For example, -3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3,4,5 etc. are all consecutive integers.

Consecutive Integers is nothing but consecutive numbers. 1,2,3,.. is an example. However they might be subject to conditions, say 1,4,9,16,25,... are consecutive perfect squares. 1,3,6,10,15, .... are consecutive triangular numbers.
