What does it mean when the exponent is beneath the base number?
$begingroup$
I am familiar with the exponential function and the power function.
Exponential Function: $y=3^x$
Power of Function: $y=x^3$
But what do the numbers under the theta in this image represent?
$h_𝜃(x)=𝜃_0 + 𝜃_1 x$

This really depends on the context, but in this case it is probably just $theta = (theta_0,theta_1)$, a vector with two entries. In general, subscripts are usually indices, e.g. $(x_n)_{n in mathbb{N}}$ for sequences.

Thank you... I am new to mathematical machine learning... just a quick question am I correct to assume that θ is basically a sum of (θ0,θ1)

Not really a sum, more of a list with (in this case) two entries.
