if it is translucent, yes
if it is opaque, no
No, smoke is not considered a transparent medium because it does not transmit rays of light through it. An example of a transparent medium would be glass.
No. light waves required no medium for transmission.

No.
Light can travel through vacuum, but it is not a medium.
Light slows down when going through a medium. This is not to say that the speed of light, c, slows down. It doesn't - c remains constant - rather the light bounces randomly around the medium on its way to its destination, which increases the time it takes for the light to traverse through the medium.

No, it does not. It can travel through any open space. Sound, unlike light, needs a medium to travel. So light can travel through outer space but sound cannot because there is no medium.
No, apart from "spacetime". But it CAN travel through a medium such as air or glass.
TRANSPARENT :) it means see through
opaque...
Yes. Matter may also transmit light through it.
