If no-one else responds to your request, you could try the Tay Valley Family History Society, in Dundee. They might be able to assist:

I don't know which cemetery unfortunately.
I'm in Australia so a bit difficult for me to research.

According to https://www.dundeecity.gov.uk/sites/default/files/publications/Burial%20Records.pdf there are ten cemeteries in Dundee.

Where did you get the lair number from?

According to Scotland's People Louise Dorothy Conway died in Dundee in 1979 aged 25.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

In that case I suggest contacting Dundee City Council to ask which cemetery it is in.
