I faced "most strongly supported by" phrase in Inference as well as Strengthen questions.
Can experts tell me how to decide on what kind of question it actually means?

Just get familiar with various ways how GMAT phrase the questions. You might find books on GMAT strategies useful.

If stem says, assume answer choices to be true, then its strengthen question

If stem says, assume stimulus to be true, then its Must be true question.

Note: Stem always says which part to assume true.
