Whenever I create a VM, it is taking directly from "Public IP Addresses - Basic" quota,when it will use standard? And where to set that?

And what is the difference between them?

For the differences see the SKU section from https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-network/ip-services/public-ip-addresses and https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-network/ip-services/virtual-network-public-ip-address

All public IP addresses created before the introduction of SKUs are Basic SKU public IP addresses.
You cannot change the SKU after the public IP address is created. A standalone virtual machine, virtual machines within an availability set, or virtual machine scale sets can use Basic or Standard SKUs. Mixing SKUs between virtual machines within availability sets or scale sets or standalone VMs is not allowed.
Basic SKU: If you are creating a public IP address in a region that supports availability zones, the Availability zone setting is set to None by default. Basic Public IPs do not support Availability zones.
Standard SKU: A Standard SKU public IP can be associated to a virtual machine or a load balancer front end. If you're creating a public IP address in a region that supports availability zones, the Availability zone setting is set to Zone-redundant by default. For more information about availability zones, see the Availability zone setting.
The standard SKU is required if you associate the address to a Standard load balancer. To learn more about standard load balancers, see Azure load balancer standard SKU. When you assign a standard SKU public IP address to a virtual machine's network interface, you must explicitly allow the intended traffic with a network security group. Communication with the resource fails until you create and associate a network security group and explicitly allow the desired traffic.

This may be answer to my second part of question, which I already referred this document but posted here as I didn't find the official document much clear. But my main question is not answered yet. Can you please read the first paragraph of my content and answer that. Thanks in advance

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
