half-brother: If Geoffrey and Kate were half-brother and half-sister then they would share one biological parent. This is not the case: they do not have any biological parents in common. Example: "My father remarried and had a daughter, Eve, with his new wife. Eve is my half-sister".
brother: A brother shares the same biological mother and father as his siblings. Geoffrey and Kate do not share any biological parents.
