There is no such thing as "better" drawing. Drawing cannot be categorised as "better" or "worse". Just have a look at paintings of some of the well-known artists, example Picasso, and you will know what I mean.
I think a valid meaning might be "better at drawing what I want to draw." This is absolutely a skill that can be improved, even if the aesthetic quality of the output can't be evaluated objectively.
By saying 'better', I'm not actually 'willing' to become better. In fact, I enjoy drawing even if the outcomes are 'bad'.
The hard part is, when I want to draw something 'concrete', I can't... For example, a story between a boy and a girl - The only thing I can do is to draw two sticks in order to make them consistent frame by frame XD.
So yes, I have to admit that I still want to share my creations with others, and without being better I can hardly do so... I think artists like Picasso are at another level, because they might treat art as their whole life, and might have the ability to focus and only focus on their own arts.
And me, as a normal person, will still need some compliment XD.

If you ever take an intro art class, you will spend a lot of time doing boring exercises like drawing a bowl of fruit, again and again.
This teaches you how to really "see" something, how to understand the shape, lighting, the true details. When we look at a thing we typically briefly glance at it long enough for our brain to categorize it, and then we move on. To get good at drawing, you need to train your brain to truly see things.
Then you learn how to hold something in your mind's eye and draw it. You start by briefly glancing away, drawing, then you look away for longer and longer, and keep drawing.
Drawing is not a mechanical skill of your hands, it is a mental skill.
Drawing is also a mechanical skill. Drawing a perfect circle for example takes practice, and does not involve the kind of mental / seeing skills you described.

Picasso was a very good artist, look at some of his “better“ works where he was just doing a portrait or something and he’s up there with any other artist known to history.
You kind of have to be a really good technical artist to be a really good “bad” artist.
Yes it can or else there would be no such thing as practicing. Just because it’s somewhat subjective doesn’t make it all entirely subjective. This extends to many other things like food, music, beauty, etc. while people have different tastes, we can easily identify the traits and examples of “better”
Drawing absolutely can be categorized as better or worse if you are talking about its accuracy to reality, or your ability to draw exactly what you want. Which is what people are talking about when they say they are not good at drawing.
