There is no official set of 'lines' from which you have to pick one that's close.
A 'line' can be drawn at ANY latitude and ANY longitude.
You would not ask your doctor or gym teacher "Which mark on your ruler is
closest to my height ?". You would ask "How tall am I ?".
There's no such thing as "the closest line". There's no standard set of "lines" that everybody must use. You can draw a line on your map at ANY latitude. The main door of the terminal building at Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport is located at 43.6316° north latitude 79.3959° west longitude. There are an infinite number of other points in Toronto, and most of them are located at different latitudes.
The equator is the 'zero' of latitude, so the smaller the latitude number is, the closer it is to the equator. There's no such thing as the 'closest' or smallest. You can name any latitude you want to, and no matter how small it is, I can always name a smaller one.
the line 0 degrees latitude is called the
No, the international date line is a line of longitude, not latitude.
The main line of latitude is the Equator (zero latitude).

About 23.5 degrees

The center of Mexico City is located at 19.42° north latitude 99.13° west longitude. Would you ask someone "What line on the ruler is closest to your height ?" I'm guessing you'd ask him "How tall are you ?" Forget about "lines". There is no standard set of of latitude and longitude lines from which you have to choose one that's somewhere close.
The equator is the 'zero' of latitude, so the smaller the latitude number is, the closer it is to the equator. There's no such thing as the 'closest' or smallest. You can name any latitude you want to, and no matter how small it is, I can always name a smaller one.
The equator is an imaginary line that circles the earth at 0 degrees latitude. Many things lie along that line. The equator is the 'zero' of latitude, so the smaller the latitude number is, the closer it is to the equator. There's no such thing as the 'smallest'. You can name any latitude you want, and no matter how small it is, I can always name a smaller one.
a latitude line is a line going from east to west. Just like the equator. the equator is a latitude line measuring at ) degrees latitude.
the line 0 degrees latitude is called the
No, the international date line is a line of longitude, not latitude.
