Not a "refund" or "rebate" or "credit". It is a "deduction".

example
If you make $50,000 a year and you are taxed on $30,000 normally, you would only be taxed on $22,500 if you qualify for the $7500, $25,000 if you qualify for the $5000, and so on.

If your taxable income is zero you get nothing. You cannot have a negative taxable income.
