Both latitude and longitude are joined on the globe. The place where these lines joined is called GRID!

Latitudes and longitudes are imaginary lines are drawn around the world. Latitude are the horizontal line and longitude are the vertical lines.
Main latitude is equator. Main longitude is Greenwich line.

A series of vertical lines from north pole to south pole and horizontal lines parallel to equator, forming a complete network called "earth's grid. ".
With the help of grid, we can locate places and learn much about them-how hot or cold it would be there, in which direction we should go to reach it and what time it would be there any moment.

Technically - Longitudinal lines intersect at the poles. So the question should be reworded.

I think geographical grid is correct because at this point longitude and latitude. Both intersect.

The intersection of latitudes and longitude pinpoint any location on the earth. These crises crossing lines make a framework which is known as geographical grid.
