There are two curved lines. One is called a "tie", which joins two notes (on the same line or space) together to add their times together. For example, two quarter notes tied together equal one half note. The other curved line is called a "slur". It means to play the notes legato (smoothly). It is often over a number of notes, rather than two, like a tie.
