Yes to first part.

If you're not as active on off days then you can eat less. I generally just eat the same amount every day regardless though.

i usually eat less carbs on non workout days to minimize fat gain, but ill still eat slightly higher than maintainence

This.

so its only important to eat a lot on training days because thats when the food gets put to use to build muscle?

non training days the food dont go to muscles? (or not as much?)

This is complicated, but to keep it simple.
Less carbs on days you don't workout.
If you don't burn the carbs, they get turned to fat.
