Some maps and globes have no lines printed on them at all, for longitude or latitude.There is no official standard for those that do, but most of the ones I've seen havehad the lines of the coordinate grid printed in black.
It's the lines of longitude which are used to define time zones, not lattitude.
Yes, lines of latitude and longitude are used to determine specific locations on the Earth's surface. Lines of latitude run east-west and are used to measure how far north or south a location is from the equator. Lines of longitude run north-south and measure how far east or west a location is from the Prime Meridian.
Longitude is the best term, but sometimes meridian is used. The line of longitude at zero degrees is the Prime Meridian.
Imaginary lines that are used to help locate places and objects are called lines of latitude and longitude. Lines of latitude run east and west around the Earth, while lines of longitude run north and south from pole to pole.

Longitude lines are the North/South lines that separate the earth in 15 degree sections. They are used for navigation.

Latitude and Longitude are used to point to exactly where you want to be
They are used to locate a certain place on a map.
The lines of longitude and the lines of latitude are on the globe if you look! Our expedition will follow a line of longitude.
