The line on the map is called the ratocoal.
The hemispheres of Earth are divided by the Equator into Northern and Southern Hemispheres, and by the Prime Meridian and the 180th meridian into Eastern and Western Hemispheres.
The two imaginary lines that divide the Earth into hemispheres are the Equator, which divides the Earth into the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, and the Prime Meridian, which divides the Earth into the Eastern and Western Hemispheres.

The Prime Meridian and the Equator
No, longitude (the prime meridian) divides the earth into eastern and western hemispheres.
Longitude lines run north-south and divide the Earth into the Eastern and Western Hemispheres, while latitude lines run east-west and divide the Earth into the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. The intersection of latitude and longitude lines creates a grid system that helps identify specific locations on Earth.
There are two main lines: Equator (north and south) and Prime Meridian (east and west). There are five lines of latitude: Equator, Tropic of Cancer, Tropic of Capricorn, Arctic Circle and Antarctic Circle.
