I don't know anything about Nero, but the values along left side (the
vertical scale)are almost certainly the sample values.  It looks like
it is probably normalized to 16 bit values, which all the programs seem
to do, even when displaying 24 bit values.  So the maximum number that
can be displayed is 32,767 which is about half of 65,535, which is the
largest number that can be represented with 16 bits.  It is half
because it will represent it as a signed number, so very loud samples
will be at 32767 or -32767, and very small samples will be close to
zero.  To tell if you have 24 bit numbers, you would have to zoom in
vertically (this is usually easiest to do on very quiet signals, near
zero) and see if they are reported as "integer" values, like 1, 2, 3,
-1, -2 ,-3 and so on or fractional numbers, like 1.23, -2.6 and such. 
Fractional numbers would indicate more than 16 bits.  Integer numbers
mean the data is 16 bits deep.
