No. An engine that consumes oil is either very worn or the oil being used is too light.
No.
Depends on how worn the engine is. An engine in good condition won't hardly use any oil at all, maybe a cup or so, while there's virtually no limit to how much oil a worn engine can consume.
what is a good engine oil to use in my car
Because with a two cycle engine the oil is burned with the gas mixture, while the four stroke if in good working order will consume little to no oil because it performs its purpose in a bath system. Meaning that it constantly coats the moving parts.

There are many reasons consuming oil by the engine. first big and serious reason is that over heating of engine due to various situations like frequently running fan in normal temperature. which we ignore, during oil changing life only one time change oil filter must change in two times. very poor quality like recycled, used oil, miss grade, specially in turbo engine. Apart from these, leaking of oil , clogged air filter, unwanted changing gear shifting, aforesaid reasons consume oil.
You may have a restriction in the oil system, which will starve the engine of oil.

Valve guide seals are worn. The engine will consume oil when this happens, when the engine is shut down the oil continues to seep into the cylinders for a short time. When you start the engine the puddled oil that seeped in burns off. Oil is always seeping in as the engine runs, but not enough to notice until it sits awhile and is started.
If it is a 2 cycle engine then it is fine. If it is a 4 cycle engine then NO, do not use this oil. Always use the exact oil that is recommended by the manufacture.
That is not a good idea.
