Normally, 1:1 provides a look at what a print might look like at any size. But, as Steve said, there are many variables at play and printing any image can be hit or miss at times. If the image is sharp and bright and the file large enough then it should look fine at those sizes. Printing an image at the given 1:1 ratio size as indicated by your camera manufacturer does assure you the best resolution but an image can often be "upsized" to print larger than the indicated native ratio, but upsizing a poor quality image can create artifacts. To figure sizing simply multiply by the ppi you will print at, many printers want 300 ppi (but 240 should work for larger sizes, too), so 24" x 300 = 7200 and 36" x 300 = 10,800. Thus, an image, for the best possible resolution at 300 ppi would need to be 7200 pixels by 10,800 pixels, but this is only a guideline and is for the very best possible resolution. You can do the same math for an image to print at 240 ppi, which in many instances works fine for printed images of most any larger size. You will need to ask your printer what they require in sizing for files and let them know if you have doubts about the image for printing. You can also order a smaller print first just to see how it comes out. If you use LrC the software can upsize to the size you desire by using the Print Module and then exporting as a JPEG. You can view this on your computer but I'm not sure how helpful that would be overall as screen resolution is so much lower than print resolution. Talk to your printer.
