Language support is backward compatible. You could ask what's the highest version the compiler would support. And yes, VB.NET is supported in net6 and further.

As per https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/visual-basic/language-reference/configure-language-version:

<PropertyGroup>
   <LangVersion>latest</LangVersion>
</PropertyGroup>

The value latest uses the latest minor version of the Visual Basic language. Valid values are:

Value Meaning
default The compiler accepts all valid language syntax from the latest major version that it can support.
9 The compiler accepts only syntax that is included in Visual Basic 9.0 or lower.
10 The compiler accepts only syntax that is included in Visual Basic 10.0 or lower.
11 The compiler accepts only syntax that is included in Visual Basic 11.0 or lower.
12 The compiler accepts only syntax that is included in Visual Basic 12.0 or lower.
14 The compiler accepts only syntax that is included in Visual Basic 14.0 or lower.
15 The compiler accepts only syntax that is included in Visual Basic 15.0 or lower.
15.3 The compiler accepts only syntax that is included in Visual Basic 15.3 or lower.
15.5 The compiler accepts only syntax that is included in Visual Basic 15.5 or lower.
16 The compiler accepts only syntax that is included in Visual Basic 16 or lower.
16.9 The compiler accepts only syntax that is included in Visual Basic 16.9 or lower.
latest The compiler accepts all valid language syntax that it can support.
