If you have the box checked, or have that "X" there, does that mean you have
allow talk feature on or off?

> allow talk feature on or off?

It's explained very well in the help:

                                       FEATURE: allow-talk

By default, permission for others to "talk" to your terminal is turned off
when you are running Pine. When this feature is set, permission is instead
turned on.  If enabled, you may see unexpected messages in the middle of
your Pine screen from someone attempting to contact you via the "talk"
program.

NOTE: The "talk" program has nothing to do with Pine or email. The talk
daemon on your system will attempt to print a message on your screen when
someone else is trying to contact you. If you wish to see these messages
while you are running Pine, you should enable this feature.

If you do enable this feature and see a "talk" message, you must suspend
or quit Pine before you can respond.

Is that at all unclear?

If the "x" is there, does that mean it is enabled or disabled?

An X in a feature means the feature is enabled.
