I assume the different points on the main sequence represent a kind of balance for the case of hydrogen-to-helium fusion.
Main sequence stars.
As the HR diagram shows, the hottest stars on the main sequence range from 30,000K as blue-white stars to about 3,000K as redish stars.

The colors of the HR Diagram are:BlueBlue-WhiteYellowOrangeRed-OrangeRed
In the HR-diagram, a diagram of color vs. luminosity, most stars are concentrated close to one curve, called the "main sequence". It turns out that stars on the main sequence are the stars that mainly get their energy by converting hydrogen into helium.
Of course they are on the HR diagram. They are simply not on the main sequence.
The diagram used to classify stars is called the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram, often abbreviated as the H-R diagram. It plots stars based on their luminosity (or absolute magnitude) against their surface temperature (or spectral class), revealing distinct groups such as main sequence stars, giants, and white dwarfs. This classification helps in understanding stellar evolution and the characteristics of different types of stars.

The Sun is located on the main sequence of the H-R diagram, which is where stars like the Sun reside for most of their lifetime. It falls in the middle of the main sequence, representing a stable phase of hydrogen fusion in its core.
The main sequence stars on the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram that are least massive are the red dwarfs. These stars have low masses compared to other main sequence stars like our sun. They are cooler and fainter, making them difficult to observe compared to more massive stars.
On the Hertzsprung-Russell (HR) diagram, stars at different stages of their life cycle are represented in distinct regions. Main sequence stars, which are in a stable phase of hydrogen fusion, occupy a diagonal band from the upper left (hot, luminous stars) to the lower right (cool, dim stars). As stars evolve, they move off the main sequence; for example, red giants appear in the upper right, while white dwarfs are found in the lower left. The diagram effectively illustrates the relationship between a star's temperature, luminosity, and evolutionary stage.
The lower right part of the main sequence in the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram contains the stars that took the longest to reach the main sequence. These stars are low mass and cool, so they undergo a longer contraction phase before they start fusing hydrogen in their cores and settle onto the main sequence.
