I faced the same issue with Ubuntu 18.04. The system was freezing on bootup. The problem was with the graphic card drivers. After installing nvidia drivers by sudo apt install nvidia-375 the problem went away.
NOTE - This was for my particular case, for your case it can be different. Check the latest graphic drivers available before installing nvidia-375

Installing Ubuntu has also installed GRUB, a boot loader. This is what's displayed in the second picture of your answer (where you selected Ubuntu as the first OS). With GRUB, you can start any of the operating systems currently installed. Selecting Ubuntu from that list should launch Ubuntu, and selecting Windows Boot Manager (on /dev/sda1) should launch Windows 10.
