The imaginary line running through Greenwich, England at 0 degrees longitude is called the Prime Meridian. It marks the starting point for measuring longitude and defines the Eastern and Western Hemispheres.
They are called the lines of longitude. Lines of longitude range from 0 degrees on the prime meridian to 180 degrees.
Longitude lines measure how far (in degrees) you are East or West of the Prime Meridian (which is a longitude line that runs through Greenwich, England and is designated as 0° longitude).
