From about code value of i gets incremented at Line 5, but not at Line 3.

i+=2;
is nothing but
i=i+2;

So what is the difference between Line 3 and 6?

At line 3 you're printing false && true. Note that false && ANYTHING is always false.

Also, with &&, if the left hand side is false, the right hand side is skipped. If you would have used & instead of && then i would have been incremented.
