Firstly,in the UK tapping of such services in such a way as you've explained is illegal without permission from the end user.

That picture is just a junction point for the main phone line and extensions, it is just a splitter that people have for extensions, we had one until we left BT and joined a cable service which used something similar but more tidy, that splitter is in a bad state of disrepair which is why your experiencing bad sound quality and just silence on the line. It all needs changing.
