Main sequence
This is usually called the Hertsprung-Russell diagram.
The Hertzsprung-Russell diagram is a scatter graph of stars in which a star's luminosity (brightness) is plotted against its colour (temperature). Stars are not distributed all over this chart. A majority of stars lie on or near the diagonal which goes from top left (hot and bright) to bottom left (cooler and less bright). These are the main sequence stars.There are also white dwarfs which are below the main sequence whereas stars which are giants and super giants lie in the region above the main sequence.
By studying the Hertzsprung-Russel diagram we can learn a great deal about the sizes colors and temperatures of stars
The "supergiant" stars are the brightest stars on the H-R diagram.

Brightness and Temperature are the two characteristics plotted on the H-R diagram a diagram used to plot the absolute magnitude of stars and their temperatures

It is a diagram on which stars are plotted according to their absolute magnitudes (or luminosities) against their stellar classifications (or effective temperatures).
That's short for Hertzsprung-Russel diagram. It is a diagram in which the total luminosity versus color (and therefore temperature) of many stars is plotted.
If you mean a Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram, which plots stars color, temperature, and absolute magnitude (see related link), then it looks like color and spectral class (temperature) are plotted on horizontal, and Absolute Magnitude/Lumenoscity are plotted on the vertical.
A main-sequence star is one that is along a curve where the majority of stars are located, when plotted in an H-R diagram. It is a star that gets its energy from fusing hydrogen-1 into helium-4.
This is usually called the Hertsprung-Russell diagram.
The Hertzsprung-Russell diagram, or H-R diagram, was created in 1911 by Ejnar Hertzsprung and Henry Norris Russell. They plotted the luminosity of stars against their surface temperature to classify and study stellar populations. This diagram revolutionized our understanding of stars and their life cycles.

The HR diagram contains only stars - so everywhere.
