Hi Shahnawaz,
Variables: Specific to single catalog item. Cannot be reused/associated with multiple items.
Variable Set: Collection of variables forms a variable set. Unlike variables, single variable set can be reused i.e can be associated with multiple catalog items
Consider 3 catalog items say Unix, Linux and Mac.
A single variable set with variables (OS Name, OS Version, Disk Space, etc) can be reused for all the above 3 items

In simple terms
Variable is local to a catalog item. For example you have a catalog item A. here you have created a variable called "ABC". This ABC variable is available only to the catalog item A.
Variable set is Global . If you create a variable set "XYZ". These variable sets can be used to any catalog items.
