I fetched the transaction receipts of a block and had some questions regarding some of the fields. If a transaction receipt shows the "to" field empty and a address in the "contractAddress" field, does it mean that the specified contract was created?

Also, what if no address is specified under contractAddress and an empty logs field is shown. What do these two scenarios show? If logs array is empty but we do have input data then what is the difference in the type of data between these two? From what I understand logs[] contains events information but input data contains information about the method called. Am i right?
