To answer your questions
To get Hy-Line Browns, you need to cross a Rhode Island Red with a Light Suss*x hen. Golden Comets and Cinnamon Queens are almost an identical cross. To get Cinnamon Queens you need to cross a pure Rhode Island Red rooster with a Rhode Island White hen. To get Golden Comets you need to cross a Production Red rooster with a Rhode Island White hen. Cherry Eggers and Production Reds are labels used by different hatcheries for the same red gene rooster cross X red gene hen cross. You can get Cherry Eggers/Production Reds by crossing any combination of Rhode Island Red, New Hampshire Red, or Cherry Egger/Production Red. Cherry Eggers/Production Reds are not s*x linked; the chicks are all reddish (both male and female), and cannot be s*xed by color at hatching. Cherry Eggers/Production Reds are excellent layers but not usually quite the egg laying machines that s*x links are. Other labels under which some hatcheries (depending on which silver gene hens are used) market their Red S*x Links are Red Star, Gold Star, Brown S*x Link, Gold S*x Link, Golden Buff, Bovans Brown, Hubbard Golden Comet, Isa Brown, , Shaver Brown, Babcock Brown, Warrens, Gold Lines, Lohmans, Lohmans Brown, Brown Shaver, Red Shaver, Bovans Goldline, etc. Black S*x Links are also marketed by hatcheries under the labels Black Star and Bovans Nera.
