Yes, they ceretainly are. That's why it's often called the "30th parallel" ... because
it's parallel to the equator, and also parallel to all the other lines of latitude, so it's
always the same distance from any other line of latitude you choose.
Every point on the 30th parallel south is about 2,073 miles from the equator,
4,147 miles from the 30th parallel north, 4,147 miles in the other direction from
the south pole, and 8,293 miles from the north pole.
"1 degree north" describes a circle that goes all the way around the earth, parallel to the equator and about 70 miles north of it. There is no such coordinate as "101 degree south". The greatest possible latitude number is 90 degrees, at the north and south poles.
The 90 degree north latitude is the geographic North Pole, where all lines of longitude meet, while the 90 degree south latitude is the geographic South Pole. The North Pole is located in the Arctic region, covered by ice and surrounded by ocean, while the South Pole is located on a continent, Antarctica, with a thick ice sheet covering the land.
The farthest you can get from the equator is to stand on the north pole or the south pole.The north pole is at 90 degrees north latitude. The south pole is at 90 degrees south latitude.
That point is in south-central Venezuela. Other points in the same country have different coordinates.
No it is not !... You can only have values for north or south coordinates in the range of 0 to 90.
Not possible.
It is located at zero degree at latitude North or South.
It is located at zero degree at latitude North or South.

No, because the south pole is only 90 degrees south.
No point can have both north and south latitude.
That point is in south-central Venezuela. Other points in the same country have different coordinates.
The physical feature located at 8 degrees North and 80 degrees West is the Amazon River in South America.
The Prime Meridian is zero east or west and every possible latitude north or south.
There is no such city because longitude only measures east and west and not north and south.
