What is a basal body temp and how do women use it to get pregnant?

My aunt told me that I should take my body temp every day and track it because it can be helpful when trying to get pregnant. How does it work ? and how am I to do this? does your body temp elevate or decrease when youre ovulating or something? Very confused!
