True.

Cirrect.

Yes. This is an important and much missed point: only the official
Ubuntu desktop gets the full 5 years of LTS support. Flavours and
remixes get less.

Correct.

Whoah. Not correct. Not possible.

LTS releases can be upgraded directly to the next LTS release (and
nothing else.)

Interim releases only to the next interim release. If that is then an
LTS, then you can go LTS->LTS.

So, the only choices for 18.04 are to 18.10 (now long dead) or to 20.04.

Then, from 20.04 the OP could go to 22.04... and for now, that's it.
24.04 isn't out yet.
