Long Answer: Home partition should be fine, but sometimes (more commonly on older computers) having Root so far from beginning of drive may cause system not to boot properly. If not too much trouble, might be better to change order of partitions to Swap/Root/Home instead of current Swap/Home/Root. Also, you should not need to have Root partition bigger than it already is (26.7GiB); so any bigger than that would just be a waste of space. Run this command from a terminal and look at the current "used" space of "/" (root). It's likely only using between 5-8GB of current available space in root partition. Even if you installed another 100 programs to LL it wouldn't use up rest of space in Root.
df -h
Basically my machine is just 3 years old so I don't think sticking root to the end of the drive will affect it too much.. I mean.. it's working fine as it is now
sudo parted --listsudo blkid
sudo mount /dev/sda3 /mnt
cat /mnt/etc/fstab
