if you adjust the shutter time to longer it will let more light in, therefor you can make better pictures in darker places.if you adjust the shuttertime to shorter, it means less light will come in, and the picture will not be so light.therefor you can make a photo against the sun, with a very small shutter time.i still suggest not trying it though ;)
i added two examples of way underexposed stuff.as you can see in the first picture, i did not follow the rule never to photograph against the light ;)
this picture (thx google) is a good example of overexposure:
