The equator is the longest line of latitude as it is located at the circumference of Earth, and the circumference of Earth is always the longest compared to anywhere as the theory is the same of the circumference of a sphere.

The northernmost latitude is 90 degrees, but it's a point, not a line.

The point is the north pole.

The northernmost line of latitude would be the tiniest circle you can possibly draw

in the snow around the north pole. But then, no matter how small your circle is,

I can always draw one that's smaller. So there's no such thing as the "most" northern

line of latitude.
