4. Are these sentences about the past, present or future?

(Future)

Let’s learn some grammar!
We use may, might, and could to say that it is possible that something is
true or that something will happen in the future.
- She may go to the beach tomorrow.

- We might take some swimming lessons.
- I could help you at the weekends.

We use might not or may not to say it is possible that something is not
true. But it's better to use can't instead of could not to say it is impossible
that something is true in the future.
*Can’t has a much stronger meaning than may not/might not.

Can’t means 'I'm 100% sure it will not happen' while may not/might not
means 'I'm not sure it will happen / It will probably not happen'
Compare:
- The train may not/might not arrive on time due to the delay.
(Possibility of it not arriving on time)
- The train can’t arrive on time because there's a major track issue.
(It's impossible for it to arrive on time)
