In Linux, the load average is calculated as the average number of runnable or running tasks (R state), and the number of tasks in uninterruptible sleep (D state) over the specified interval.

your statement about "Last 1, 5 and 15 minutes" is true.
CPU utilization is another thing.

High CPU utilization may not necessarily indicate that there is a problem; it could just mean that the system is being well utilized.

About runqueue -> Every process enters the runqueue before its processed by the processor.
run-queue: Number of active ( running ) and queued processes.

For ex: In a 8 core system, a run queue with a length of 100 can be in the form of 8 processes actively being served by CPU and 92 queued and waiting for execution.
