yes
no.

A:In Old Testament tradition, Jacob was the ancestor of all the Hebrew people, including the Jews. Since Jesus was a Jew, this tradition would mean that Jesus was a descendant of Jacob. In Matthew's Gospel, Jacob was the father of Joseph, but the virgin birth would mean that there is no blood relationship. In Luke's Gospel, Heli was the father of Joseph, so there is no sense of whether this Jacob was related to Jesus.
The Bible does not specifically name her, but she would have been the wife of Jacob, Joseph's father.

They're not mutually exclusive. In this case, in fact, both are true. It's well known that Joseph was the carpenter, but according to Matthew 1:16, Joseph was also the son of Jacob.
Joseph, like Jesus, in secular society would have borne his fathers name. Jesus would have been known as "Jesus ben-Joseph." Since, however, the geneology of Jesus is slightly cloudy, once one gets past Joseph, Josephs name may have been Joseph ben-Jacob or Joseph ben-Heli.
