From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Yes. Resize your main large data partition (the one with all the free space) but make it small enough that it plus all other partitions will fit on the destination disk.
Resizing it should not lose any data. As long as it's an unecrypted filesystem your Linux install can mount, and that gparted can see used/free space inside, it will only resize free space. However, as with all things- make a damn backup if you actually want to keep that data.
Thanks for the help 👍
