To understand the concept of aspect ratio just take 20 seconds and read the first paragraph of this wikipedia entry:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspect_ratio
After you read that, you should be able to easly understand that, for example, your native monitor resolution of 1440x900 pixels implies an aspect ratio of 1440/900 = 1.6 (aka 16:10 beacuse 16/10 = 1.6).
The original game graphic assets where created in a time where monitors with a 4:3 aspect ratio were the norm. In terms of resolution, for a 4:3 aspect ratio you could have:
800x600 (800/600 = 1.33333...)
1024x768 (1024/768 = 1.33333...)
1280x960 (1280x960 = 1.33333...)
and so on, because 4:3 ratio means 4/3 = 1.33333...
My laptop monitor has a native resolution of 1366x768, what aspect ratio it is? Let's see...
1366x768 (1366/768 = 1.778645833333...)
so it is about 16:9 ratio because 16/9 = 1.77777... so not exactly equal but just close enough that any distortion of a game graphics created to be displayed in 16:9 on my monitor will not be perceptible).
I hope that helped!
