What are “red dwarf” and “orange dwarf” stars?

I know what “red giant,” “brown dwarf,” and “white dwarf” stars are.

Are red and orange dwarf stars minimal mass stars with different ages?

I don’t know the whole story. Stars in the sky come in various sizes and colors. The Sun we have is a medium-sized yellow star.
