An ant that finds a food source makes its way make to the nest leaving a trail of "scent" that all the other ants can follow to get to whatever tasty treat the first ant found. So they move in a 'queue' because they are following a "stinky highway"!
Great question.
(You should start an ant farm, it's fun!)

They don't actually. They move by smell and feel. It is us humans that call it a queue. the ants have no idea.

They follow a chemical trail left by the other ants , it helps them find the way to food and back to the nest .

they are following the pheromone trails left by fellow ants towards the food supply.

Ants are blind creatures.
It would hard for them to get back to their home if they do not follow each other.
