How is it possible to visualize objects and colors with closed eyes just by thinking of them?

Sometimes if I think of color purple with my eyes closed I can see purple lines or if I think of any random color I am able to see that color when I close my eyes. I know that the color is not actually there but how am I able to see the exact same thing that I think of with my eyes closed?

In the same way, while giving a test or an exam,sometimes you close the eyes to think of the answer and you are able to see relevant information that you have studied in front of your eyes. How does that happen?

Because the visual processing part of your center isn’t your eyes. Your eyes are inputs for visual information, but your brain is the processor. And with your years of experience with sensory input, your brain is able to reconstruct it without needing an actual input.
