All lines of constant latitude are parallel to all others,
but no two lines of constant longitude are parallel.
They aren't, latitudes are.
Latitudes are parallel to the equator. Longitudes converge like elastics on a soccer ball.

Yes No, lines of longitude are as parallel to each other as the earth is flat. All longitudes intersect at the north and south poles.
Latitude lines are parallel but not longitude lines.
Probably never. Longitudes are generally the imaginary lines joining the North and South poles of a spherical object such as the earth; and these define the East-West location of points. Longitudes cannot be parallel and so it is unlikely that two points can be said to be in a parallel longitude.
Parallel lines never meet. On the other hand, every pair of longitudes meets at the Earth's North and South Poles.
No. Longitudinal lines run parallel to the Prime Meridian. Latitudinal lines run parallel to the Equator.
