Chemistry question on Heterogeneous mixtures and solutions?

Classify each as solution or heterogeneous mixture:

a. milk

b. gasoline

c. paint

d. coke

I understand that a solution is the same thing as a homogeneous mixture and that a heterogeneous mixture is where you see the different substances, but all these seem to me as solutions. Can you tell me which are which and why please. (I’m thinking milk and gas are solutions and paint and coke are heterogeneous mixtures but I am not 100% sure)

I would say that gas is a solution and milk, coke and paint are heterogeneous. If you churn milk butter will emerge and the milk will be left. Paint is made of different types of particles in the mixture. Coke is a solution of sugar water, plus CO2, where the gas emerges from the solution.

Gasoline is the same throughout.
