Yes, 3G means 3rd generation. As mobile technology advances, new generations of networking speeds are "officially" released, but you can still use them in older phones, or "2G" phones.

The only difference is that if you use the internet on the phone in question the internet loading speed won't be as fast, but that's only because of the phone's processer.

Yes. But in order to camp on the 3G network, your sim card needs to be provisioned at the core network.

Can you use a tracfone sim in iphone 2g?

Unfortunately, you cannot. Tracfone disables any unlocking of any of their SIM cards of any kind on any network, and you may or may not be penalized if you try. I suggest you unlock the Iphone 2G with T-Mobile, if you want lower-price service. I've heard THAT unlocking process is possible.
