Yes. The Federalists were those who supported ratifying the Constitution. James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, and John Jay wrote the essays now collectively known as the Federalist Papers under the name "Publius" in an effort to convince voters to ratify the Constitution.
They were not against the constitution as much as they were against the Bill of Rights attached to it; they saw the problem we have today - that listing the bill of rights opened the rights not listed to interpretation and denial by the Government and its officials, and the slow erosion of those rights listed as it could never be expanded enough to encompass the full measure of those rights and to protect them properly (quoting different Federalists).
Yes and No. It's important to recognize the Articles of Confederation and the Constitution represented two different types of government, so most people preferred one over the other, but few people opposed both.
The Federalist Papers were written to sell the states on the benefits of ratifying the Constitution, which was intended to replace the Articles of Confederation.
The authors of the Federalist Papers, Alexander Hamilton, James Madison and John Jay, were in favor of a strong central government and less state sovereignty, so it's fair to say they were against continuing to operate under the Articles of Confederation (opposed), but in favor of operating under the new Constitution (not opposed).
No, they championed the Constitution to get it ratified.
