Does "a graveyard" mean any graveyard?

Some cards have an ability that might, for example, read "Exile target card from a graveyard." Does this mean that it can be your own or your opponent's graveyard?

Yes

If it doesn't say a particular graveyard, like "exile a card from target opponents graveyard", you can choose any graveyard.

Yep! The wording on magic cards are important on things like this. If it says "a graveyard" it means just that; whichever graveyard you choose.

And this circumvents situations which a player has hexproof, since it does not target the player
