Well, dinosaurs were divided into two main groups, the lizard-hipped and the bird-hipped dinosaurs. Birds evolved from the lizard-hipped dinosaurs, and the bird-hipped dinosaurs died out.
Reptile is a catch-all term that doesn't really mean anything. Crocodiles are much more closely related to birds and dinosaurs than they are to any other reptiles (so should probably be grouped with birds rather than lizards and snakes), and extinct "reptiles" like dimetrodon are more closely related to humans than they are to any extant reptiles.
