Concept of free –m command in Linux

I wanted to know the concept of free -m command as there are different rows of Mem, -/+ buffers/cache & Swap in the output. As an example, it is showing 195 as free Mem in my server but 13850 in the free section of the -/+ buffers/cache row. The output needs in depth knowledge of the different parameters of the command.

I hope, my question is clear.

Please revert with the reply to my query.

Regards
