No - if 16.04,1 is the current latest version of 16.04, then I mean 16.04.2 .

I mean the next release of 16.04 after the current release of 16.04 .

I have 18.04 installed as a clean install on a newer computer (I had
mentioned that,in a previoous post, when I could not select to boot
into Ubuntu, and then I later found that it was a UEFI/BIOS setting),
but, we were advised to leave upgrading from 16.04.x to 18.04, until
18.04.1 is released, which, when the information was published, was
expected to be released sometime next month, from memory.
