The expression Taskbar comes from Windows, where the complete bar inclusive Start-Button and tray-area belong to.

In Linux Mint with Cinnamon there is the panel and inside the panels there are the applets, which do the real job: menu at right and so on. What you might want to remove is the applet window list; you can remove it via applet settings (right click it on the applet list).

In the current versions of Cinnamon you cannot remove the panel itself (in the next version you can do this). You can set them to autohide (right click on an empty place on the panel) and / or place at the top border of the desktop (open the panel settings for that).
