iCloud back up
My iPhone storage is low so I need to delete some files. Will I still have them on iCloud when I delete them from my phone? I know it’s a dumb question, but I want to be sure.

No you will not. Apple doesn't offer cloud-only storage. The following may help: About storage on your device and in iCloud - Apple Support

For what you want to do, you need a different cloud based solution such as Dropbox, OneDrive, or Flicker.
Thank you so much!
Aaaah... thanks, Eric. I’ll try Dropbox.
