So, new here so...
I downgraded my ubuntu drive from 18.04 to 16.04 (For tensorflow 1.12 and cuda 9. Had to downgrade.) My question is how would I keep it at 16, so that I can use 'sudo apt-get upgrade' safely in a way that doesn't break the whole system...?

Ubuntu/debian systems allow upgrade, but not downgrade of packages (without a lot of work) so I'm assuming you re-installed. Asudo apt-get upgrade
andsudo apt-get dist-upgrade
will not bump your release from 16.04 to 18.04 -- unless you have a misconfigured sources.list file that allows bionic (18.04) packages to be added/installed on your system. Ubuntu uses ado-release-upgrade
or a different tool to change-releases.apt-get
doesn't do that by itself.

All you have to do is refrain from typingsudo do-release-upgrade
, and you'll get maintenance updates until April 2021, see ubuntu.com/about/release-cycle
