Since the earth is a sphere (ball), you can reach any place on earth by traveling in
either direction from any other place.
To reach any west longitude from the Prime Meridian, heading west is the shorter way.
To reach any east longitude from the Prime Meridian, heading east is the shorter way.
The distance from the prime meridian is usually measured in degrees of longitude. The distance east or west of the prime meridian is referred to as "longitude."
It is fifteen degrees East. (15 degrees East of the Prime Meridian. The Prime Meridian being zero longitude).
The word that measures the distance east to west of the prime meridian to 180 degrees is "longitude." Longitude is expressed in degrees, with the prime meridian at 0 degrees and the maximum extent at 180 degrees east or west.
The distance east or west from the Prime Meridian is measured in degrees, with 360 degrees in a full circle representing the Earth's circumference. The Prime Meridian itself is set at 0 degrees longitude, so any location east of it will have a positive longitude value, while any location west of it will have a negative longitude value.
Longitude is the angular measurement in degrees east or west of the Prime Meridian. The Prime Meridian is at zero degrees; going east, your longitude is in degrees and minutes east, while going west your longitude is measured in degrees and minutes west. A circle is 360 degrees, so the maximum longitude is 180 degrees either way. At the 180 degree line (called the "anti-meridian") the measurement is neither east nor west.

!80 degrees east of Greenwich and then one crosses over to West Longitude

Longitude or meridians are the distances in degrees measuring east or west of the prime meridian.
35 degrees
The longitude of every point on the Prime Meridian is Zero.
It is neither. The prime meridian is 0 degrees longitude. All other meridians are measured from this. East or west to 180 degrees.
Distance east or west from the Prime Meridian is measured in degrees of longitude, with 0 degrees being the Prime Meridian itself. Locations to the east are expressed as positive values, while locations to the west are expressed as negative values. For example, New York City, which lies west of the Prime Meridian, is located at approximately -74 degrees longitude.
