It is a fault indicator usually for an engine or cat fault. If the light does not go off in a couple of days. You will need to get it checked out by a professional.

Why would a 1997 Ford Escort die while driving if it's not hot and is getting power to everything and will turn over but not start?

Check to make sure the air filter is clean. If it's clogged it can prevent your engine from having proper air flow. Had this happen to me on 1999 escort - turned out to be broken fuel pump. Alternatively the fuel lines could be blocked/twisted but this is unlikely to happen suddenly whilst driving.
