Are all religious ministers under the supervision of the pope?

Not directly. There is a 'chain of command' in the Church, not unlike the military. Ministers, such as priests, come under the supervision of their immediate superior - pastor, abbot, bishop, for example. The pope has more to do than supervise the actions of each of the thousands of Catholic priests.

What is the wife of a pope's title?

There can be no such person as a "wife of the Pope". The Pope must be a Cardinal of the Catholic Church. Cardinals are, for the most part Bishops (with a few priests). All priests and bishops of the Catholic church take a vow of celibacy when they are first ordained and cannot ever marry. Even in the Eastern Rites which allow married priests, the Bishops are only chosen from the celibate priests.
