What is continental divider?

The "Continental Divide"separates the Atlantic and Pacific watersheds.The continental divide (on any continent) is the place where rain falling on one side would go to the ocean on one side (the Pacific Ocean in the case of North America) and rain on the other side would eventually make its way to the other side of the continent (the Atlantic Ocean). Canada has a somewhat unique continental divide, as water has three destinations: the Pacific, the Atlantic, and the Arctic oceans. There are actually six continental divides in North America.

What is the name of the imaginary line that runs north and south through the Rocky Mountains?

The Continental Divide is most likely what you are referring to though I would argue that it isn't imaginary. Paying attention to the topography you can visually extrapolate much of it. As water on the East side flows to the Atlantic and water on the West side flows to the Pacific, the ancient carving of those waters make it apparent.
