assembly questions

this is one of the first code examples i've used to take a peek into assembly programming. this one i can't quite figure out. basically, i have made a X.txt file that has coordinates of points that make a star. the program asks user to input the name of the file where the coordinates are located, it draws the star using different colors, and it computes the sum of all xxxx and yyyy coordinates. there are plenty of values in hex form that don't make sense to me, i can't figure out why they're THERE that is. also, i can't figure out what is the function of each of those labels. i understand every line of code, what it does to be exact, but my brain can't compile it as a whole. i've marked the parts i don't understand (not all of it though) in red, bold font. so if you have the nerves, please hit me up with some info. thank you all for your time
