When I installed the system, when partitioning disks, the mount point for the swap pointed to the usual hdd instead of ssd. Now I want to remount the swap on ssd. What do I need to do for this? Run live with mint and in gparted cut off the required amount for the swap from the ssd and specify it as a new mount point?

just create a file on the disk of the required size and make it swap:

In principle, yes, but before that you need to disable SWAP on Mint: how to do it. Now it will be possible to do without liveCD.
SWAP needs to be disabled to avoid a number of possible problems
