As long as you and your friend use the same version of Mac OS X and both use MacBook's compatible to the operating system used, you may use your Mac OS X disc to restore your friends MacBook. However you may not reset their administrator password with your disk, they will need their own if they plan to use your disk for that purpose.

No. As of now you can only run and use Xcode on Mac computers. Even though you go to the process of waiting 4 hours for it to download, when it is complete you can't do anything with it on a Windows computer.
You can use programs such as eclipse, rhostudio, if you have windows. If you have mac you can use eclipse, rhostudio and xcode. Check the links.

you probably should get the MacBook. they are cheaper than the MacBook Pro. now, if you want a bigger screen, then get a MacBook Pro.
The Intel Core i5 offered in a new MacBook Air is more than sufficient for daily use. A MacBook Pro is better suited for heavy design or developing use.
The very best Mac laptop is the 15" Macbook Pro with Retina display. However it is very expensive at $2,599. The 13" Macbook Pro with Retina display at $1,799 is just as good only slightly smaller. The negative of all of these is that they use flash storage which is not near as large as the 13" Macbook Pro without Retina display that has a price of $1,199 and a 500GB hard drive. They also do not have a DVD/CD drive like the base model 13". For this reason IMO the base model 13" Macbook Pro without Retina display is the best Macbook Pro and is also the cheapest. If you are a student, teacher, or government worker you can buy the base model 13" Macbook Pro for $999.
