What fascia means
Fascia is the trim board along the eaves, nailed to the rafter tails. The gutter hangs on it and the drip edge laps over it.
Where it matters on a roofing job
Gutter installers find rotten fascia more often than anyone. Before hanging new gutters, push on the board; if it is soft, the gutter will pull out. Quote fascia repair per linear foot and say in the scope who is replacing it.
