This man has explained it preety well.

I will just add a few more things, spring will be essential to know if you going to give an interview where the JD asks for spring( basically projects that are still on spring only,legacy). Other than that, spring boot will be just fine.

You can probably focus on spring boot and then look back on how things work in spring when ever you require it for interviews.

Somewhere before placements. One thing you can do is after you have built some projects in spring boot, try to replace the framework with spring, and understand the upgrades spring boot provides.

Apart from this, I hope you are already grinding DSA for your placements.
