Does Lossless Audio remain Lossless after ripping/back-up?

Does Lossless Audio remain Lossless after ripping/back-up?

Does lossless audio remain lossless audio after ripping or backing-up for the respective lossless audio tracks (i.e. LPCM, Dolby True HD and DTS-HD MA)?

I assume it doesn't matter if you rip the individual file of whole disc - correct?

It seems to remain lossless(24/96 remains 26/96) from what I see via MediaInfo but I had read elsewhere that MKV only copied the core (lossy) audio - perhaps this historic info - hence my questions to confirm now.

thanks!
