Many Spiders weave webs but not all do. Some spiders are ambush predators and do not build webs and still others actually chase their prey rather than relying on a web.
No. Humans tend to notice the web weavers, especially the orb weavers. But there are loads of other kinds of spiders that hunt their prey in other ways. Wolf spiders use silk only to line burrows and make egg cases.

These spiders, and all spiders that weave spiral webs, do have venom, but the venoms of the spiral web weavers is not so strongly toxic that it poses any threat to the lives of human beings. Their bites are not even regarded as being particularly painful. Spiral web weavers generally bail out if their webs are disturbed by anything much bigger than they are. About the only way that somebody might get bitten would be to blunder into a web and knock the spider down the neck of one's shirt or sweater. Of course anybody who reached out and grabbed on that was resting on her web should probably expect to get bitten.
