Basically, this Q&A section shows the answers to your search query. The section shows some similar questions as well along with their answers. If an answer helped you out, you can click its vote button to give it a vote.
Google Will Soon Remove the Q&A Section From Search

If you’ve made any contributions to this feature, Google suggests that you make a backup of your contributions from Takeout. It adds you should complete this step by June 30.
No More Asking and Answering
Once Google finally pulls the plug on this feature, you’ll no longer be able to get answers and ask questions like you could do before with the feature. However, know that Google Search will continue to function normally.
