Lower-division classes are related to introductory courses, GEs (gen eds) and pre-requisites. Upper-division classes are major-related / major-specific classes.

Lower division classes are usually geared for freshmen and sophomores and generallly consist of 100/200-level classes t( introductory material).

Upper division courses are geared for juniors and seniors and are more specialized/harder (usually numbered 300+). People who are majoring in a subject must take a lot of upper division classes in their majors in order to obtain their degree. The also material builds so that you are expected to have a certain level of knowledge when you sign up for the course.
