I'm pretty sure TBA will only return teams that survived into the static team number age (teams that folded before that wouldn't have been available in the FIRST records for TBA to import, and any data that did exist wouldn't have made much sense). So the cutoff would be: all teams on TBA competed in at least the 1998 season.

I couldn't find any quick examples to dispute that, although I didn't to an exhaustive search.
