There are two types of progressive verbs in English: present progressive (also called present continuous) and past progressive (also called past continuous). These verbs are used to show actions that are ongoing or in progress at a specific time.
Yes, progressive verbs (also known as continuous verbs) typically involve dynamic verbs that indicate actions or processes that are ongoing. Stative verbs, which describe states rather than actions, usually do not form progressive tenses.
What were you doing yesterday ? I was eating my breakfast when the phone rang
Progressive verbs, also known as continuous verbs, indicate that an action is ongoing or incomplete. They are formed by adding the auxiliary verb "to be" along with the present participle form of the main verb (ending in -ing), such as "is running" or "are eating."
The present progressive: am/is/are + present participle. The present perfect progressive: have/has + been + present participle. The past progressive: was/were + present participle. The past perfect progressive: had + been + present participle. The future progressive: will + be + present participle. The future perfect progressive: will + have + been + present participle.
Generally, stative verbs (e.g., love, hate, want, need) are not commonly used with Present Perfect Progressive tense as they are not actions or processes that are ongoing or have a duration. Instead, stative verbs are better suited for Present Perfect or Simple Past tense.

True
Some verbs cannot use the progressive or continuous tense because they do not have the -ing form. The following are some of the examples:belikeknow
The progressive (continuous) tense describes continuing action.

If we are talking about English, there is no such thing, and you are probably conflating possessive pronouns and the progressive aspect of verbs. In Spanish, I believe, some progressive verbs can have pronouns attached to them, so the term might make sense;
