No, that's not accurate. The points $(m,n)inBbb Z^2$ are a lattice, but they are not the only lattice in $Bbb R^2$, consider the sets:
$$(a,bsqrt 2): a,binBbb Z,quad leftleft(a+bover 2, bsqrt3over 2right): a,binBbb Zrighttag$*$$$
These are also a lattices.
Generally a lattice in $Bbb R^2$ is a $Bbb Z$ module of rank $2$ which contains a basis for $Bbb R^2$.
As Cameron notes, this just means that you have integer combinations of two $Bbb R$-linearly independent vectors from $Bbb R^2$ (it's important that they be linearly independent over $Bbb R$ and not something like $Bbb Q$)

Or in perhaps friendlier terms: given two linearly independent vectors in $mathbbR^2$, a lattice is all integer linear combinations of these vectors.

That is correct. The term "lattice points" usually refers to the points with integer coordinates.
okay thank you for the help.But can i know why?

does 6x+8y=25 pass through any lattice point?

@user3481652 why? because that's the definition

About your $6x+8y=25$: Your book is probably talking about the integer lattice, the points with integer coordinates. If $x$ and $y$ are integers, then $6x+8y$ is even, so cannot be $25$. The line does not pass through any points $(x,y)$ of the integer lattice.

About your $6x+8y=25$: Your book is probably talking about the integer lattice, the points with integer coordinates. If $x$ and $y$ are integers, then $6x+8y$ is even, so cannot be $25$. The line does not pass through any points $(x,y)$ of the integer lattice.
