Question
What is meant by elevation in boiling point? Why is it a colligative property?

Answer

The increase in boiling point of the solvent in a solution when a non-volatile solute is added.
Because it depends upon molality/the number of solute particles rather than their nature/$\triangle\text{T}_{\text{b}}\propto\text{m}$
