No. It is asking a question that really does not need an answer, in order to make a point. Ever hear anyone say "How could I be so stupid?" That is a rhetorical question. They do not expect you to tell them how they could have been that stupid. It is also used in advertising quite a bit. "Wouldn't you really rather have a Buick?" or "Aren't you glad you use Dial?" are examples.

No.

"I understand why" is not a question of any kind. A rhetorical question is one that is asked but the person talking does not really want anybody to answer.
