I’m given my public key to a server and now I have the ability to connect to it via sftp in nautilus. Is there a way for me to use those same credentials to ssh to the server through terminal?

Yes. Add your public key to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys and that should do it (most of the times, depends on server settings).
