You can learn about what happens when you switch themes at https://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/#switch-themes.
To quote:
Switch Themes
When you change a theme, nearly everything comes with you. Your posts, pages, media, blogroll and all of your content stay with you.
When you change to a new theme, there are a few things you’ll want to check afterward:
Custom Menus
You’ll want to reassign your Custom Menus to the locations you want them in the new theme. Each theme supports different locations, depending on the theme.Widgets
You’ll want to place your Widgets in the proper Widget locations. Like Custom Menus, each theme supports different locations, depending on the theme.Custom CSS
The only thing that would not come with you is Custom CSS, because that is theme-specific. You will find your past CSS in the CSS revisions link located at My Sites → Customize → CSS. -
Thank you Elleas!! Okay got it but one last question, what is a CSS? I want to be sure I don’t loose anything important so I will need top know what that is in case it is something that may keep me from wanting to change my theme.
I appreciate this fantastic help!

Custom CSS is only available to Premium and Business Plan owners. It gives you the ability to alter how your page looks without affecting the content itself. It’s how your site is designed and gives you the ability to design it further than themes provide.

Okay, I am not a premium or buyer so when you say, It gives you the ability to alter how your page looks without affecting the content itself, this means that everything that I have posted will be lost?
