Secondary lines are basically super long call reserve 2 days out. VTO isn't really a line type but a second bidding process to bid for trips dropped for vacation and training consisting of the other 3 line types. If you want more information the contract is on iap2750.org. No log in required.
As for when you can hold primary lines depending on the fleet it looks to be about a year or so. However on the 76 reserve lines tend to go way more senior.

Please read the multiple threads discussing training and current delays. Due to various reasons, two months of training is taking upwards of five months. On all fleets likely, and possibly longer. You will be on year one salary at min guarantee from date of hire, so don't worry about pay. While in Miami you will also receive per diem. If you are sent home after indoc awaiting ground school, you only lose per diem.
