stern
It is recommended by the USCG that all vessels should be anchored from the bow,{front} and never the rear. In Texas it is illegal to anchor your boat in lakes or creeks and rivers from the rear.
The inboard end of the anchor line can be fastened to any secure point on the vessel.
The in board end of an anchor line attaches to the bow (ie front end) of the boat/ship. On a small boat such as a River Drift Boat, the anchor line may be attached to stern (ie back end). of the boat.
The side where the anchor line will give you the least problems.
Assuming you are on a boat and you are using a standard sized anchor, then if the water is 20 feet deep you'd use 20 feet of line.

Scope
The correct spelling is anchor (boat line weight, or support attachment).
it depends on your hull, your lower trim plate should ideally be in line with the line of the keel of your boat.
the length should be 8 times the depth of the deepest water you are planning to anchor in.
