Each TCP/IP packet contains a header. That header has several fields in it. One contains the IP address of the device that sent the packet (the source address), and another contains the IP address of the device that the packet is being sent to (the destination address). Once the packets gets to its destination and a reply is sent the content of those fields will be swapped.
The in-interface is the interface through which the packet entered the router. When a local client sends a packet to the Internet the in-interface will be the LAN interface. The out-interface is the interface through which the packet leaves the router. When a local client sends a packet to the Internet the out-interface will be the WAN interface. For the return packet the in-interface will be the WAN interface, and the out-interface will be the LAN interface.
You may want to find some book or online guide to TCP/IP - those questions really are a little to basic for this forum.
