The release notes say: "Upgrades from earlier Fedora releases will keep their configuration, starting user accounts from 500." Might be worth noting that that only user accounts starting at 1000 with be listed in the login screen, even for updates. (Unless that has recently changed.)
Upgrades shouldn't be affected iirc.
Perhaps not for a true upgrade. However, my typical upgrade procedure is to install the new release in a separate fresh partition, keeping the old /home. This is useful for testing (if the new release isn't ready for prime time), and as a fall-back in case something goes wrong. I believe many people do something similar.
