No.

An isotherm is a collection of points that are all at the same temperature. If two (different) isotherms were to touch each other then that would imply that they were at the same temperature but, by definition, if they have points on them at different temperatures then all the points on them must be at different temperatures.

No. Two isotherms have different temperatures. If they intersected, the intersection point would have two temperatures at once, which is not possible.

What does intersect each at right angles mean?

If two lines intersect each other at right angles, that means that the measure of each angle between the two lines is 90o. Another way of stating this is to say that two lines are perpendicular.


Lines with one point in common?

Two lines with one point in common are said to intersect at that point. Any two straight lines with infinite length will eventually intersect each other, unless they are parallel to each other.
