A small orchestra typically has woodwinds in pairs, medium or normal orchestra has them in threes, and a larger orchestras has woodwinds in fours. This means: 2 bassoons or; 2 bassoons and 1 doubler (bassoon and contrabassoon) or; 3 bassoons and 1 doubler. This often varies, and composers sometimes purposely organize the orchestra unbalanced. 2-3 bassoons is often what you'll find, a professional orchestra usually has a standard of 3 with the option of having 5 (2 more).
It depends on the age/height of the player. For example, younger bass players in junior orchestras may use a 1/4 size bass whereas older/taller players may use 7/8 or 3/4 or full size. It simply depends on the player- there isn't a size that all Bassists have to use in orchestras.
There is no specific answer to this question as it depends on the nature of the music being played and the context within which it is being played.
In a general sense:
For a full time professional orchestra of say 80 players they will have around 6 bass players on full time and bring in casuals when the repertoire requires it.
Usually around 4-6 in a professional orchestra. Youth orchestras tend to have less than that, about 2-4.
