These are words which describe the direction of circular motion, by referring to the motion of the hands on an analog clock. Basically, if you are proceeding around the circumference of a circle with the interior of the circle on your right-hand side, you are proceeding clockwise. If you have the interior of the circle on your left side, you are proceeding anticlockwise (sometimes also called counterclockwise).

If the spin of one electron orbital is clockwise what is the spin of the other electron in that orbital?

According to Pauli's Exclusion principle it will be having anticlock wise spin if it is in the same orbital. Because no two electrons can have all the four(always spin is half) quantum number same. By the way, I don't think anyone actually calls them "clockwise" and "counterclockwise". It's usually "up" and "down" or "plus one-half" and "minus one-half".
