In the anatomical position, the body is facing forward with arms by the sides and palms facing forward. "Supine" refers to a person lying face up, so it cannot be used to describe a body in the anatomical position. "Dorsal" and "posterior" both refer to the back of the body and can be used to describe a body in the anatomical position.
