Straight away I see the sources.list says 'Tina' but the

Now I'm compared it with my minty fresh (ha) VM it seems that your repos
are correctly configured - Mint move everything from the normal
sources.list to sources.list.d/offical-package-repositories.list
apparently, fair enough. Nothing obviously weird about your other
entries either.
However, my Mint VM has freshly installed itself with a brand new
5.3.0-45-generic kernel+headers without me doing anything to intervene.
So to cut to the chase, what happens if you do:
sudo apt install linux-image-5.3.0-45-generic
linux-headers-5.3.0-45-generic linux-firmware -y
If your machine doesn't just install the whole lot for you there is
going to be some mystery solving required. Also, my VM can happily tab
autocomplete valid package names in apt commands straight out the box so
again, it's weird that yours doesn't.
Reboot afterwards and that'll solve your old kernel issue and at least
partially dispel the possibility that your package manager has gone out
to lunch.
Annoyingly I must also confess that Mint 19.3 straight out of the box
has been quite pleasant to use, much better than I remember it. Now to
double down and install palemoon on it lol.
