They have a V or X on their back. So next time you see a beetle and a true bug, look for the one that has a V or X down it's back to identify which one is a true bug.

Is a lady bug a true bug?

A ladybug is NOT a true bug. Reason, all true bugs have its own scientific and simple name. The bugs that are not truebugs, are bugs that have the "bug" in the name. Non-true bugs can have the "bug" separate from its first name. E.g.. lightning bug. Perhaps you were thinking of true flies versus the non-flies that consistently have "fly" attached to another part of their names.

If it is true that all bugs are insects but not all insects are bugs then which ones are considered bugs and why?

No. As odd as it may sound, the word "bug" is used scientifically to refer only to two suborders (Heteroptera and Homoptera) of the order Hemiptera. So cinch bugs, water bugs, bed bugs and cicadas are all "bugs", but lady bugs, potato bugs and doodlebugs, are not. However, the word has its legitimate non-scientific meaning referring to just about anything that crawls, creeps, wiggles or squirms, and so the scientific "bugs" are sometimes called "true bugs".
