It means that we feed a learning algorithm with sets of questions and answers, and after some type of learning processing, the algorithm will produce a trained model that will be able to predict the best possible answers for any unique questions that we ask.

Here is a very basic example that describes the idea of supervised learning:

Let's say we have a dataset of houses that have the size of the house in sqft for a question and the price of every house for an answer. If you plot the data on the x and y axis, it may look something ...
