This article seems like a decent assessment: https://cybernews.com/best-password-mana...gers-safe/
It depends whether the service provider has access to your passwords. In the case of LastPass and other decent providers, no they don't, so even if LastPass is hacked, your passwords are safe as they are never available in plain text in the cloud.
So, no, if LastPass is hacked the intruders do not have any of your passwords.
If you read the article you referenced, they even say this - cloud based password managers like LastPass are safe. If your master password is sufficiently complex and you never write it down or store it anywhere else, you're OK.
