I’m not sure if its a catholic or protestant catechism. It was composed around the seventeenth century. It’s in question and answer format popularized by Martin Luther.

Both are protestant á la Reformed ideology. So definitely not Catholic. If you’re in the market for a good Q&A catechism with solid teaching, I’d recommend the Baltimore Catechism.

They are not Catholic.

Notice it says Presbyterian in the description.

Not a thing wrong with this Catechism or the several versions of the Catechism by Fr. John Hardon† S.J. or even The Belief of Catholics by Monsignor Ronald A. Knox.

They’re Reformed (Calvinist), I used to read them when I was Presbyterian.
Don’t waste your time, read the Catechism of Saint Pius X.
