There are no rules really, it's just that some positions are easier in the context of the piece you're playing. Keep in mind that music revolves around chords and on a guitar, chord notes need to be clustered together in order to play them all. That's the main reason you would need to choose between this string or that string.
As for learning notes on each string, just remember that notes come in alphabetical order: ABCDEFG, and that there are 'in between' (#/b) notes between all of them except E>F and B>C.
So for the B string, start at B (obviously), then just go alphabetically up from there: C, C#, D, D#, E, F, F#, G, G#, A, A#, B ... that's your 12th fret.
