According to the Diccionario de americanismos, a colonia is a neighborhood, so in that field you're just supposed to type in the name of the neighborhood you live in.
No. is the abbreviation for número, so no. exterior means exterior number, this is the number of the building. And no. interior is the interior number, the number of the apartment inside the building.
Depto. is the abbreviation of departamento, used here with the meaning of flat or apartment. Once more you're supposed to type in here the number of your apartment inside the building (the interior number).
Here you have an example of a Mexican address taken from the Wikipedia:
C. Francisco I. Madero No. 115 Int. 1
Col. Nuevo Casas Grandes Centro
31700 Nuevo Casas Grandes, Chih.
So you have "calle Francisco I. Madero", with an exterior number of 115 and interior number of 1, in the neighborhood (colonia) of "Nuevo Casas Grandes Centro", postal code 31700, in the city of "Nuevo Casas Grandes", state of Chihuahua.
