Arson is a crime -- it is the intentional (sometime reckless) setting of a fire that causes damage to a building.
An arson fire is a fire set by arson -- as opposed to one that started accidentally or by natural causes.

Arson means someone DELIBERATELY started the fire. The method is not at issue. The INTENT is what makes the act arson.

Arson is the name of a criminal offense. It is a fire that is set in motion by the acts of a person.

Arson is a fire that is intentionally and criminally set by ANY means. An arsonist is the perpetrator.
