I think class relationships are how your molars relate to each other.
They should sit in a nice zigzag pattern when looked at from the side. Like the spiky bit of a top molar should fit into the groove of the bottom molar and the gap between the other tooth.
If you need braces, chances are this is not how your teeth sit and that's why you're getting bracketed
