Most likely, the Apple web browser safari's icon is a compass for several reasons. A compass is a sign of a navigator, and when you are browsing the web, you are navigating it. As well, a compass represents exploration, and you are exploring the web. A compass can also represent freedom, which most modern Web Browsers grant you to a certain extent in things such as 3rd party plugins.

Where is the house icon on safari on your MacBook Pro?

The little icon that looks like a house is the 'Home' icon. On a Mac, 'Home' is the folder for the current user. Each user will have a different 'Home' folder. User home folders are inside the USERS folder on the start up disk. Safari can store a 'Home Page' which is the page that will appear when Safari is opened. It can be set to any URL the user wants in Safari Preferences. Clicking the home icon will open the specified URL. To put the home icon on the Safari menu bar, click 'View' => Customize Toolbar, and drag the little house to where you want it.
