Jamal,

The tiling scheme is a group of configuration settings that include the scale levels, point of origin, coordinate system, and image format of the cache tiles. These properties define where cache tile boundaries will exist and are important to match when overlaying caches in some clients. Other properties, such as image format and antialiasing, are also written into the tiling scheme.

ArcGIS Online tiling scheme has 20 scales (levels of details); however, on the Caching tab of your Service Editor window, in the Levels of Detail panel, you have chosen to cache only the scales between 10 and 17. So when you go to the Advanced tab, you can see that those scales that are not within 10-17 range will be greyed out to indicate that the cache tiles will not be created in those scales. However, it is important to show them in the list - the scales will be present in the scheme even if you don't create cache tiles for them. This is done to let you cache a map service in some of the other scales later on yet preserving all other tiling scheme settings.
