If it turns color in the autumn and falls off, it is deciduous.
If it is an evergreen needle-type leaf, it is a conifer

A deciduous leaf comes from a tree that loses it's leaves during the winter. Most broad flat leaves are this type. A pine needle on the other hand would be an evergreen leaf. (I know it is a needle not a leaf, but they call it a leaf nonetheless)
So if it is not from an evergreen tree, it is from a deciduous tree.

Does it turn brown in the winter? If yes then deciduous leaf. If no evergreen.

Well, it's getting close to fall/winter - if the leaves fall off the tree, they are deciduous leaves. If they remain on and green (like pine needles, and a few other varieties of trees), they are coniferous. In general, however, most leaves that have points on them (whether one or many) are coniferous (not 100%, but mostly).
