Beethoven's opera, Fidelio was originally titled Leonore. He wrote three overtures, each time deciding the overture was too strong to serve as a prelude to the opera. After he revised the opera and changed the title he wrote a fourth overture, this one bearing the new title, Overture to Fidelio. All four share melodic features and a similar structure. Some conductors have inserted the 3rd (and most famous) of the Leonore overtures as an intermezzo between the last scenes of the opera.
No. Beethoven wrote music in every classical genre, solo piano, chamber music, symphonies, solo songs, an opera, choral works, overtures, and concertos for piano, violin, and piano trio.

For the most part, it depends on the composer. Some composers prefer to do things in order, but others will compose overtures as they are inspired for them. This means that the overtures may not necessarily be composed in order.
