What is in a direct line during a lunar eclipse?

OpenStudy (nurali):

During a lunar eclipse, the Sun-Earth-Moon form a perfect - or almost perfect - line, so that the light of the Sun shines on the Earth, and the Earth's shadow hits the Moon. When we see "partial" or "penumbral" eclipses, that's when the alignment isn't quite close enough, so that the Moon is only partly in the Earth's shadow.
