The Product represents the physical or virtual thing that your company sells. Product is usually defined by name, by SKU (unique identification, stock-keeping unit), and by some other properties like category, unit, etc. Products and their management can be found in Administration.
The Product Line item represents specific relation between Product & Opportunity. At the moment when the Product is linked with the opportunity, we call this relation Product Line Item.

This is really helpful when your business calculates Opportunity Values only from Products on Opportunity. Then define an opportunity attribute "is_value_auto_calculate": true
