A treble clef is just a symbol to let you identify middle C on the staff. An eighth note (half the length of a quarter note, of course), represented by a filled-in circle with a single flag on the staff, can be placed either on a line or in a space. Just where you put them is up to you; if you own a piano or a keyboard, you can try them out.
