Active state vs In Development
Could someone tell me what is the difference between the "Active" and "In Development" states in DevOps? We're using DevOps for managing our project work and when starting on work we are confused...

As mentioned in the previous comment, the states depend on which of the four types of workflows you use.
I suggest you use the Time in State for Azure DevOps extension to track state changes in Work Items, calculate how much time they spend in each state, etc https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=SaaSJet.tis-azure.
The following reports are available: Time in State, State Count, and Transition Count. It is also possible to export them to Excel.
I hope you find it helpful.
