Can I put post values directly into insert statements?
$query = "INSERT INTO categories (category_name) VALUES

Yes, although this is not recommended.
What is someone puts a single quote in there? Or some other bad
characters....
otherwise... 2 options:
$query = "INSERT INTO categories (category_name) VALUES
('".$_POST['cat_name']."')";
-or-
$query = "INSERT INTO categories (category_name) VALUES
('{$_POST['cat_name']}')";
