A fish hook clasp is commonly referred to as a snap. At one end the snap works like a safety pin allowing you to open it slide in a hook or the eye ring on a lure and then close it. The are many different types of snaps but they all effectively work like a safety pin. They pop open and snap shut again.
The other end of the snap either has a swivel (which allows the hook or lure to spin without imparting and twist onto the fishing line; needed for lures like spinners). or just an eyelet. These are used to tie the snap to your fishing line.
The snap allows you to interchange your hooks and lures quickly and easily without having to re-tie. Though convenient many fishermen prefer to tie directly to hooks for better performance of the lure.
Also note that snaps come in different sizes and you should buy the size that matches the weight of your line and the size of your target fish. Again, this will help performance of the lure.
