It can, if it is exposed at the surface and undergoes weathering, erosion, deposition, and lithification. In other words, it does not necessarily become sedimentary rock, but it could if it follows that path in the rock cycle.
It can if exposed to the requisite conditions and circumstances of weathering and erosion.
Yes and No An igneous rock can not just "become" a sedimentary rock, it first has to be weathered and eroded at the surface of the Earth. The debris produced is then washed away as sediment and deposited elsewhere. This deposited sediment then gradually hardens into a new rock which is a sedimentary rock. Thus until igneous rocks are exposed in outcrop, they remain as igneous rocks.
Igneous rock can become sedimentary if it is weathered into sediment and then lithified.
It doesn't have to. Most rocks exposed at the surface will erode and become sedimentary, but igneous rock that is underground can be remelted and become another igneous rock, or can become metamorphic.
No. It becomes igneous rock.
Igneous rocks can become sedimentary rocks through weathering and erosion, deposition, compaction and cementation.
Sedimentary rock melts, then it cools to form Igneous rock. Hoped this helped. :)

Weathering and ErosionDepositionCompactionLithificationCementationThose are the five steps for an igneous rock to become a sedimentary rock!
Igneous rocks are a "finished product". They do not become sedimentary rock - though sedimentary rocks, with heat and pressure can become metamorphic rocks.
Both sedimentary and igneous

Any type of rock, igneous, metamorphic or sedimentary, can become eroded and re-deposited and cemented together to become a new sedimentary rock.
Igneous rock can weather and become sedimentary rock . Metamorphic rock can be melted in a volcano and become igneous rock. Igneous rock and sedimentary rock can be heated and pressurized to form metamorphic rock.

No. It becomes igneous rock.
