It would be somewhat easier to answer this question if I knew whether you're
referring to the Memphis in Indiana, Michigan, Missouri, Nebraska, New York,
Tennessee, Texas, or one of the many of them outside the US.
There haven't been any permanent residents of the ancient city of Memphis,
Egypt, for over 1,400 years now. But its location is well known, much remains
of its impressive temples and monuments, and the center of archaeological
activity to uncover its history is located about 12 miles south of Cairo, at 29.8493° north latitude
31.2550° east longitude. There's no such thing as "the closest line". Longitude is not some official set of
standard lines, from which we're supposed to pick one that's somewhere close
to the location we're working with. A 'line' can be drawn at ANY longitude.
You wouldn't ask somebody "What mark on the ruler is closest to your height ?"
You would ask him "How tall are you ?"
Similarly, you don't need to be satisfied with "What line of longitude that the
publisher decided to print on this map is closest to the place I'm interested in ?"
You have every right to ask "What is the longitude of that place ?" whether or
not the publisher has decided to print a line there.
The prime meridian is a line of longitude. Nothing can be closer to something than itself.
34 degree north and 75 degree west
Japan occupies the range of longitude between roughly 122.95° and 145.81° East. A meridian ('line') of longitude at any position within that range crosses land or territorial waters of Japan, and you can't get any closer than that.

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.
New York City is on the longitude 74o west
The closest hotel to that address is the Relax Inn Memphis - Memphis, 5248 S 3rd St, Memphis, TN, 38109.
Knoxville sits on 84° West, and Memphis sits on 90° West. 90° minus 84° equals 6°, meaning Knoxville is six degrees of longitude from Memphis.
