The most accurate statement is:

Not all reactions fit into one category, and some reactions can fit into more than one category.

This is because many chemical reactions can be classified in different ways (such as synthesis, decomposition, single replacement, double replacement, etc.), and some reactions may exhibit characteristics of multiple categories.
