Except 9 times out of 10 its a direct port rendered at a different resolution. Nobody can even define what it means since games aren't mastered to disk like a movie or album.

Remastered is a term that IIRC comes from the Audio "scene" it mean to take an actual pre-final record (thats called a pre-Master, thats why its called a remaster) and make it sounds better, i mean there will be nothing less than the OG one, but you can add more, more instruments ect ect, it also applies to the cinema, where they take the final cut of a movie and make it visualy better (ex: Star Wars remasters).

So, just a upgraded resolution of a game could be called a remaster.

This news, just shortly after Katrielle & the Millionaire's Conspiracy DX was announced for Switch? Also Japan-only for now.

What does this mean?

Both these games already have official English translations though.

Sweet! I'd love to see the whole series get a similar treatment. Maybe ports to PC, 3ds and Switch at a later date?

Yeah but not with updated visuals and sound, at least for the first four games.
