TIFF would be used for high quality photos and print files, while JPEG would be used where file size is an issue, and quality isn't as important. JPEG and TIFF are a couple of the most common examples of lossy and lossless compression, respectively.

File formats that use lossy compression throw away pieces of information as they compress the file for a compact file size. This usually isn't too much of an issue except when compression is set high, or a file is saved multiple times in a lossy format.

File formats that use lossless compression manage to keep every bit of information about your picture, but use clever algorithms to compress where possible (for instance, a large area of white could be noted as such, rather than a vast array of white pixels). Even compressed lossless files are much larger than lossy ones.

It boils down to quantity versus quality.
