The Sugar Act was a tax law which cut the tax on sugar and molasses in the colonies in half, but increased the enforcement of the tax collection. The Navigation Acts were trade laws which forbid any country other than Britain from directly trading with the American colonies. All they really had in common was being directed at America by Britain so Britain would make more money.

How did the stamp act differ from the proclamation line and the navigation act?

The Stamp Act was created to tax the colonists. Britain needed money and believed that the colonies should pay for it, since they were providing them with "protection" and it cost money to do so. The Proclamation Line was to separate the colonies from the rest of America, the part where the Native Americans were, to protect them. As to the Navigation Act, I have no clue.
