The lines of longitude run from pole to pole.
A line running north and south/ up and down is called a vertical line.
A geodesic line connecting the north and south poles.
The imaginary line that runs through Earth's North and South poles is called the axis or polar axis.
Yes, every line of longitude runs from the North Pole to the South Pole.
By "vertical", we understand "away from the center of the Earth". So a line thatextends vertically from either pole heads away from the other pole.The only straight line joining the north and south poles is the Earth's axis of rotation.On the other hand, meridians of constant longitude are imaginary lines on the Earth'ssurface that join the poles and often appear printed vertically on certain map projections.

I thought they were.
No. It has two ends, at the north and south poles.
Those are "meridians of longitude".
the equator
The equator is the line on the map that is midway between the North and South Poles. It is located at 0 degrees latitude and divides the Earth into the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere.
The line that separates the world vertically is the Prime Meridian, which runs from the North Pole to the South Pole and is located at 0 degrees longitude.
