Correct. It's a density thing, not a color thing (colors are adjustable and vary from unit to unit.)
Gradual change from color to color typically means less-dense bottom. Think sand, grass/vegetation. Quick changes in color (like you describe as skinny lines) typically mean dense bottom. Hard pack, rock, or concrete/asphalt (seen mostly in freshwater, obviously.)
The best way to learn your unit is to use your unit. The best education is time on the water......
