Yes? RHEL 6 uses kernel 2.6 and RHEL 7 uses kernel 3.10. Both are actively maintained and supported.

They are maintained and supported by RedHat, but you can't find for example AMD Radeon drivers for their latest generation for RHEL6 (though they do have them for RHEL 7.9).

Rhel 6 is moving to extended life phase in another month. At that point no bug fixes, security fixes, hardware enablement or root-cause analysis

I wouldn't say that is actively maintained or supported.

RHEL certanly isn't something that's maintained for free for everyone though. You pay a rather hefty fee for this kind of support.
