My memory may fail me, but I'm pretty sure ASP used VBScript, not regular VB. Similar syntax but not the same runtime/environment. ASP could use any Active Scripting language (the other language shipped with Windows being JScript, MS's impl of a subset of JS)

Frequently VB if your application had COM components in Microsoft Transaction Server. I shudder at the memories. But yes, the <% ... %> inclusions in the .asp files were actually VBScript (usually) not full VB.

You're correct. I did a ton of ASP in JScript back in the day, but VBScript was much more common.
