Supreme pizza is one of the most famous types of pizza IMO. If you asked me to name 5 types of pizza, it would definitely be on the list (along with cheese, meatlovers, and pepperoni, I think).
Plain is weird to me because I’d never use that word to describe a type of pizza. In my mind, “plain” pizza might be cheese pizza?
I would suggest that there’s a difference, though it’s subtle and maybe blurry at times. Specifically, a margherita pizza is more likely to include basil leaves, and might (but doesn’t have to) have large slices of cheese instead of the uniformly-spread cheese of a cheese pizza.
I’d say the perfect prototype of a cheese pizza is the 2nd or 5th one on the top row. The margherita pizza inherently has a broader conceptualisation, but I’d say the closest to a prototype might look like the 2nd on the top row, or the 2nd on the third row.
The thing here is that the only difference really is the basil leaves. The cheese being in pieces or covering a larger area is purely aesthetic.
The ones with bigger chunks are usually when the emphasis is on the quality buffala mozzarela. Or if the pizza is neapolitan style.
I have been to Napoli and the pizzas pretry much looked like the top ones but without basil. Where I come from margherita rarely has basil leaves and we border Italy.
Main thing being that pizza names and variants are highly location dependent. You for example would probably have no idea what a Karst pizza or Farmer pizza are. But here pretty much any pizza place has those and they are almost always the same.

I have never heard of a supreme pizza. Might be an anglosphere thing.
Also a pizza with just tomatoes and cheese is a Margherita.
