I want to know if i use Min API label 26 that’s mean Android 8.0.
So Then the apps will be support only Android 8.0 or if i use Min API 26 then the app will be work from API 26 (Android 4.4 to Android 8.0) all devices.

actually i’m confusion on it, please share…

The warning in the picture and the property Min SDK have nothing to do with each other.
Sometimes is a google search enough.

The picture from you shows target sdk.
This can you not change. We do this. And our target sdk is 27!

Now to min sdk:
If you set min SDK to example 21… Then you can not install the apk on a android 4 device. It works then only started from android 5+
