Yes, by their constituents being the planet's primary materials.
Sedimentary rocks started to form only when erosion of the original land created the sediment.
Metasediments came later still, as plate tectonics started to metamorphose the early sediments.
Igneous rock was the first to appear on the planet.
The first of the three rock types to form on Earth were the igneous rocks; formed from the cooling and solidification of magma, as the Earth was at one time completely molten.
The first rocks to appear on Earth were igneous, having solidified as a crust on top of the molten planet.

Igneous rocks or the primary rocks were the first type of rocks to be present just after earth solidified.

The first rock on Earth was igneous, the Grandpappy of all rock types, formed from the solidification of the magma that was early Earth.
Intrusive igneous rocks form from cooled magma below Earth's surface.
The term that refers to rocks produced when melted rock or magma from inside Earth cools or hardens on or below Earth's surface is "igneous rocks." Igneous rocks are formed through the solidification of molten material, either on the surface (extrusive igneous rocks) or beneath the surface (intrusive igneous rocks). Examples of igneous rocks include basalt, granite, and obsidian.
Neither. You can get sedimentary rocks that are older than igneous rocks, or igneous that are older the sedimentary rocks. However, igneous rocks are formed from magma within the earth's crust, or as it extrudes onto the surface, while sedimentary rocks are formed from the erosion and redeposition of existing rocks, so generally in the life cycle of a rock the igneous form would come first.

Extrusive igneous rocks.
Igneous rocks are the most common type of rocks on earth.
Metamorphic rock would probably have been the first rock type formed after the initial formation of the first igneous rock. Sedimentary rock formation relies on weathering and erosion, whereas metamorphic rock can be created by heat and pressure. It's likely that rock was metamorphosed before weathering existed .
Intrusive igneous rocks form from cooled magma below Earth's surface.
90% of Earth's upper crust is made of Igneous rocks.
Extrusive (volcanic) igneous rocks.

The kinds of rocks on earth are Igneous, Sedimentary, and Metamorphic.
