A 35 mm camera is a camera which is using a 35mm (roll) film size. It is NOT a digital camera !
You may hear a "35mm film camera" is an old fashion camera which is using a 35mm roll film. But in fact is delivering a very good quality of photos for a low price. ;-)

A 35mm camera is one which you need to put a film into in order to take pictures, as opposed to a digital camera which doesn't need a film, just a memory card in which to store pictures. I think the 35mm has something to do with the size of the film, but to my knowledge the films just come in the one size and it's just a way of knowing what type of camera someone is referring to.

Before digital cameras were all the rage, 35 mm cameras were pretty much the only thing you ever saw anyone using. They use film that you have to have developed before you get prints. They still come in point and shoot models as well as SLR models. You have seen hundreds of 35 mm cameras without knowing what they were called. That's all.
Here's some general information of interest:

35 mm is the width of the film the camera uses. Rolls of film come in different lengths (24 pictures, 36 pictures).
