SC100 means space command 100, which is a remote control.

The degrees, is the deflection angle - basically the angle the beam is spread between the electron gun and the farthest edges of the screen. The larger the angle, the shallower the CRT can be, which makes the TV less deep, and easier to fit places.

The smaller angle though has less inherent geometric distortion, and requires less correction. As TVs improved, the deflection angle increased, and the cabinets became less and less deep.

You will only know the deflection angle by checking the CRT number itself - I can't think of any easy way to tell without being able to check the CRT number and looking up data on that specific tube.
