so the air bag doesn't suffocate the person
It depends on how the pump was turned off. Was it unplugged? Was the air ride switch turned off? If your air springs are working properly, then all you have to do is make sure the switch is on and the compressor is plugged in. Start the car, close the door, and wait for the system to inflate.
yes
The rear seat is the safest place. If the van does not have airbags or the air bags can be turned off, then yes.

a godly car A big car with air bags.
Air bags are designed to keep your head, neck, and chest from slamming into the dash, steering wheel or windshield in a front-end crash. They are not designed to inflate in rear-end or rollover crashes or in most side crashes, unless equipped with side airbags. Generally, air bags are designed to deploy in crashes that are equivalent to a vehicle crashing into a solid wall at 8-14 mph. Air bags most often deploy when a vehicle collides with another vehicle or with a solid object like a tree. Air bags inflate when a sensor detects a front-end crash. The sensor sends an electric signal to start a chemical reaction that inflates the air bag with harmless nitrogen gas. All this happens faster than the blink of an eye. Air bags have vents, so they deflate immediately after cushioning you. They cannot smother you and they don't restrict your movement. The "smoke" you may have seen in a vehicle after an air bag demonstration is the nontoxic starch or talc that is used to lubricate the air bag. All air bags are not the same. Air bags differ in design and performance. There are differences in the crash speeds that trigger air bag deployment, the speed and force of deployment, the size and shape of air bags, and the manner in which they unfold and inflate. That is why you should contact your vehicle manufacturer if you want specific information about the air bags in your particular car.
Air is normally used to inflate car tyres, sometimes just nitrogen is used.
Nylon bag.
that car has air bags in the rear so either the air bags are bad or the air pump on lines are bad
It depends on your car and model if the air bags will deploy if the car's engine is off but the air bags are still activated as long as it is still connected to the battery.
It is probably because of the rear air suspension... Lincolns have an "air" suspension which helps to give it a plush riding feel. There are bags near the wheels of each rear tire that are filled with air upon vehicle start up (or very shortly thereafter). These bags are filled with air has the vehicle is on, inflating if there is a drop in pressure. When the vehicle turns off, these bags are deflated thus lowering the rear end of the car.
