More great advice here:
For scale, riff and melody playing: https://youtu.be/GaQSLpBnRCs?t=38 Thumb position: https://youtu.be/GaQSLpBnRCs?t=98 Generally an excellent, detailed explanation of the ideal finger placements. Here's the classical perspective: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2TyXvcc-UQc (again, scale-playing position, thumb position, with some basic exercises.) For barre chords, here's some advice and pics: https://andylemaire.com/bar-chord-hand-positions/

I play seated, with a strap. I have the guitar central to my body and I have the head stock raised to facilitate easy access to the first frets. If I need more leverage for barres I can adjust the head stock up as needed prior to playing the tune.
