Will music added via iTunes be in iCloud Music Library?

I have around ten gigabytes of music and most of it is added via iTunes. The PC I used to add music onto my iPhone is very under-powered and cheap, so I had to delete most of my music from it to save space. I'm going to upgrade to the iPhone XR soon and will restore the device from iCloud Backup, so will the music I added from iTunes be available to listen to on my new phone or only music from Apple Music and/or the iTunes Store?


Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

iPhone 7, iOS 12.0.1

Did you have iCloud Music Library turned on on the computer?


Did you allow it to scan your library, and match or upload your library to iCloud?


If the answer is no, you are not sure, then your music is probably not in iCloud to be recovered from.
