Right single quote (’) in UTF-8 (https://www.compart.com/en/unicode/U+2019) has the same bytes as ’ in cp1252 (which is more or less "ASCII" if we're doing ELI5). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows-1252
Sometimes your keyboard or program's settings will use right single quote for apostrophes instead of a normal apostrophe. ' you might notice how this one is straight and not bent a certain way. This setting is often called smart quotes.
