Default Radio Questions, Please

Hello,

Have radio monitoring as a hobby.
Sr. Citizen now, so please put up with my dumb question a bit.

A bit confused over the modes that are used for normal analog voice
communications.

If anyone could comment on these, would be most appreciative:

a. Plane to ground, and vice versa, and also plane-to-plane,
is always AM. True ?

b. Oceanic communication, MWARA etc., is always USB. True ?

c. if (a) and (b) are true, when at what point does the pilot switch
from AM to USB ? How ?

d. Tracon and Tower comms are both AM. True ?

When is FM used ?

Much thanks,
Bob
