Answer:

the set of point M, point N, and all the points between point M and point N

Explanation:

We assume you're interested in a description of line segment MN, the portion of the line containing M and N that has endpoints M and N. That description is found in "Answer:" above.

Other choices:

... all collinear points: describes line MN, not segment MN

... point M and point N: describes two points, not a line segment

... points the same distance from each: describes the line that is the perpendicular bisector of segment MN
