Is sql server 2008 database compatible to run on sql 2016

Question

Good morning,

 

I hope you can help me. I have been searching on the internet but I couldn't find the exact answer. I am tasked to investigate the compatibility of current DB running in MSSQL server 2008 with MSSQL2016 and also applications(Classic ASP, .Net Framework 2.0, 3.0, and DotNetNuke), will they run in OS 2016 server.
