My machine wants me to increase the size of the boot partition for updates. Why do you just go ahead and do that?

Increasing the size of the /boot partition can be a quite complicated task with shuffling data around. Maybe there is an easier possibility to free up space by removing obsolete versions of kernel packages.
What is the output of the terminal commands
df -h
df -i
dpkg -l | grep ' linux-i'

Here is your output:

BTW, Shift+Ctrl+C won't paste the output from the terminal window.

Sorry, I cannot access the information on the link.
Please repeat the commands and use the terminal window's menu entries "edit - select all" and "edit - copy" to copy the information for pasting into this question document.

I did that. Pressing Shift+CTRL+C won't paste into launchpad. The
output file is attached.

Shift+CTRL+C is not supposed to paste anything anywhere.
Pasting the copied text into the message box works with ctrl-v or by clicking the right mouse button and selecting 'paste'.
For your space problem:
You have a /boot partition of 237 MB total size with a certain share, usually 5%, reserved for special purposes, so 225 MB available for use.
One version of the kernel package needs about 45 MB size. You have four versions installed, that gives 180 MB, and compared to the total available amount of 225 MB there are now 45 MB left. Apparently just not enough for installing another version of the kernel packages.
I propose to purge the two oldest versions of the kernel packages. This should give enough free space to install the current kernel packages with enough space for installing another one. And in future you should regularly purge old obsolete kernel packages to have only two or three versions installed.
Whenever the update-manager installs a new kernel, you should care for removal of the oldest obsolete kernel package.
Try the commands
dpkg --purge linux-image-
df -h
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
and report the outcome.

Sorry that I forgot to put sudo in front of the dpkg command, but you were able to correct it yourself.
There is progress, packages have been updated without problem.
Some more things to do:
1. issue the command
sudo gedit /etc/default/grub
put a hash sign (#) in front of the line that starts with
GRUB_HIDDEN_
to make it
#GRUB_HIDDEN_
save the file and close the editor.
This should remove the "GRUB_HIDDEN_
2. Issue the command
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.
This should solve the "GPG error: NO_PUBKEY E131728675254D99" problem.
3. Issue the commands
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get --purge autoremove
This should remove some more obsolete packages.
Please copy/paste all output as done before.

The output looks fine, the warnings have disappeared and all pending updates have been installed.
Your original question was about increasing the size of the /boot partition. Due to the fact that this is a quite complicated task, I do not recommend to do this. If you have an eye on the available space and timely purge obsolete kernel packages, there should not be the need for a change on the /boot partition.
I recommend that you execute the command
sudo apt-get --purge autoremove
whenever the update processes have installed a new kernel version.
Another possibility is installing Ubuntu-tweak and regularly (say once or twice a month) using the janitor function in Ubuntu-tweak to remove obsolete kernel packages.

Thanks, whatever all that means. When I was using Windows I just used Partition Magic....
Can you help with this problem?
Provide an answer of your own, or ask Arnett Carroll for more information if necessary.
