Well you might be seeing an actual line. I'm mentally tagging the squares in that line as 'line of control'. It's like seeing somebody point a finger at something. I don't need to visualise an actual line coming from their fingertip to be able to judge where they're pointing at. It's more a spatial thing than visualising an image.

IDK, it's tough explaining how brains and thought processes work. They just... are.

This is why I'm always interested in talking to people about aphantasia. It's like 2 people trying our best to describe colors to each other and wondering "are we talking about the same thing...?" the whole time.
