When we say that orbitals have a shape (azimuthal quantum no.) do we just mean the area where the electron(s) are most likely to be found?

Yes Dhruv.
You got it right.shapes of the orbitals are nothing but graphical representation of the area where there is maximum probability for finding the electron.
