Obviously; but in this conversation they are different ways of describing the same object. Your point that they can also describe different objects makes my point more salient. They aren't simple different names for the same thing, like soda vs pop, but rather entirely different aspects of the same object.
A four-bedroom structure with mod coms and indoor plumbing is a house. If it is unoccupied, it is not a home.
A tramp sleeping rough in an alley or a park has a home, not a house.
And now you’re backpedaling.
