Looks like all three of those are still supported.

http://tomcat.apache.org/whichversion.html



I found additional detail.  Probably more than you wanted:

8.0 has reached end of support and is less than two months from complete
end of life:

https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-80-eol.html

The Tomcat 8 download page says that end of life has not yet been
announced for 8.5, so 8.5 and 9.0 are still good.

https://tomcat.apache.org/download-80.cgi

The Tomcat 7 and Tomcat 9 download pages don't mention anything about
end of life:

https://tomcat.apache.org/download-70.cgi
https://tomcat.apache.org/download-90.cgi

Thanks,
Shawn

Best guess hasn't really changed since this:

https://markmail.org/message/5klk3rtf4mb2aacv

Very roughly, based on historic data, major releases are supported for 
around 10 years from first release. The intention is to continue that 
going forwards but what actually ends up happening will depend on 
circumstances at the time.

As others have said, all continue to be supported and should be for
the foreseeable future.

My recommendation would be to move to 8.5 or 9.0 if you have not
already done so. Tomcat 7 isn't officially in "maintenance mode" but
some significant changes were made between 8.0 and 8.5 so the
frequency of back-ports for improvements made to 9.0/8.5 are going to
become less and less frequent for Tomcat 7.
