Row 1: A conjunction introduces a clause with its own subject and verb. "Since" can introduce a clause of time or of reason. In "She has not called me since she moved to Astana" the clause refers to a starting point in time, so it is a conjunction of time, not of reason. In "Since you are tired, we can stay at home" the clause gives the cause ("because you are tired"), so this is the conjunction of reason. Row 2: An adverb stands alone and is not followed by a noun or a clause. In "We met in 2015 and have been friends ever since", "since" ends the sentence and means "from then until now", so it is an adverb. In "She has lived in this city since 2015" it is followed by a noun phrase (a point in time), so it is a preposition.
