Usage of y ou là

Hi - thanks for this great website. I have a question regarding y and 'la\la-bas'. I am not sure whether they can be used interchangeably? For example we could both say J'y vais ou je vais là and, if so, does it keep the same meaning? Thank you!

Question doesn’t make sense"Elle habite à quatre-vingts kilomètres d'ici." How far does she live?

This is not a full sentence. ‘How far does she live?’ How far does she live from what?
