The lines of latitude and longitude can be thought of as a grid of horizontal and verticals over the surface of the earth. The x-axis is the longitude and the y-axis is the latitude. The center is located at (0,0) -- that's latitude 0 and longitude 0. Latitude values with positive values are found in the northern hemisphere and negative values in the Southern Hemisphere. Longitude values with positive values are found in the eastern hemisphere and negative values in the Western Hemisphere.
Any point on that imaginary grid can be located using a longitude value on the x-axis and latitude on the y-axis. Increasing digits on latitude and longitude values map onto an ever smaller area. Six (6) decimal places of precision is enough to map down to a point with 10 cm accuracy.

What is Exact location on earth?
"exact" is a relative term. If you're grandma asks, what's your exact location, you can reply with an address. If you're stuck in the middle of the ocean and require rescue you would typically provide your exact latitude and longitude. e.g: latitude: 43.95328204198018 longitude: -107.73193359375 However, since your questions is a "general" one it's difficult to be specific, so error on the side of caution. If someone asked my "exact location" I would not only respond with my exact latitude and longitude but my elevation and the time and time zone. I hope that helps.
