That is correct.

I think it's "ON" becuase it is without "the"

I think it is the correct answer this time.

In my opinion, "in time" tends to be used more specifically, Examples:

I got there in plenty of time to eat something before I started work.
I got there in time to talk to Marsha before the meeting started.

This is great service. Explaination can be more useful.

Yes, I agree.

"I had a meeting at 3:00 and I managed to get there on time".

"The rain gradually got worst, I feared I would get soaked, but I made it to my car just in time".
