A lamp can be run by power from a telephone line.

Since the ringer voltage across the twisted pair is 120 VAC RMS the telephone can definitely handle that. Given the fact that the telephone is also supposed to survive induced surges from nearby lightning strikes to the line the telephone should be able to handle over 1000 V common mode impulses (but I don't know the exact limit). No telephone is expected to survive a direct lightning strike to the line (which could be millions of volts). Note: common mode means the voltage is applied between the twisted pair lines (both at about the same voltage) and ground. If the survivable common mode voltage were to be applied across the twisted pair instead it would severely damage the telephone.
No Not really sure what you are looking for in an answer but: A mobile telephone is a telephone, your Telephone connected to a land line is also a Telephone.
No the British Telephone line is not accessible from America. In order for it to work in America it has to be a 1 800 number. The British Telephone line is not a 1 800 number.
The first transcontinental telephone line was joined at Wendover, Utah, in 1915
First long-distance telephone line was created in 1877.
a one line telephone means 1 person can talk at a time and a 2 line telephone means 2 separate people can talk at the same time in the same house
