edd@rob:~$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
Release: 18.04
Codename: bionic
edd@rob:~$ apt-cache policy r-base-core
r-base-core:
Installed: 3.5.1-1bionic
Candidate: 3.5.1-1bionic

Make sure you remove any old entries / competing entries in /etc/apt/source*:
edd@rob:~$ ag cran /etc/apt/
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/cran.list
1:deb https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu bionic-cran35/ # disabled
on upgrade to bionic
edd@rob:~$
Here the bionic-cran35 entry is the only CRAN entry I have.
| I have been able to install R3.5.1 on Ubuntu 16.02 using the xenial-cran35/
repository & so not sure if the bionic link is up to date?
Should be. You can also poke 'by hand' with a browser...
