Is Node.js forwards compatible?

Question

My belief is that Node.js is forwards compatible. A script that runs in Node.js N should also run in Node.js N+1. Is there any documentation that I couldn't find mentioning this? Or is there some way of knowing other than simply installing a newer version and test it?

I've written some scripts a few years ago, back when the current Node.js major release was v5. I want to upgrade the system, but need to be sure that the current process will not break.
