Yes. You dont have to, but that gets more complicated. You dont have
to use apache to run tomcat. If you do, you'll have to configure
apache to use a connector to tomcat. There are many ways to do that
depending on what you want to do, what version of the software you are
running, what OS etc.

Apache.
Tomcat is at 8080 by default.

Dont do that. modify the root path in the config file.

Pretty much all your questions are in the Tomcat FAQ. Check out:
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/faq/

Specifically: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/faq/unix.html

Yes. You can also use one of the hundreds of tools to do that. One of
them is eclipse.

Use Oracle, or if you want something free, use Postgresql.
