The breed standard for the Border Collie set by the American Kennel Club is that the length should be just shorter than the height of the dog, with the perfect ratio being 10:9. The height for the male collie is 19 to 22 inches and the 18 to 21 for the female.

12 to 15 years, usually. Some live 16 - 17 - 18.... up to 20 years!
Border collies, being a medium sized breed, should have an average lifespan of 15 years.

What is the same about the collie and a smooth coated border collie?

There isn't really a smooth-coated border collie. The border collie is a different breed, but the rough collie, with a long double coat, and the smooth collie, with a shorter coat, are pretty closely related. The rough collie and the smooth collie both originated for herding purposes in the British Isles. They have the same general shape, size, and colorations. The only big difference is the coat type.
