What does "-a" mean??
Google doesn't know. Do you?
Please tell me, what the "-a" option for PHP-CLI means, what it does and what it can do for me? (Or maybe "what I can do for it"?)

Same here. Also very meaningfull, because there's only noted "Interactive Mode", which does not clearify in any way, what the "Interactive Mode" is/does/is used for?!

If you followed the 2nd tip of the day, you may see that the interactive mode take the input as a pipe and process it once it reaches the php closing tag (?>, starting with the "<?php"(open php tag).
