It will not have much of an impact if that is all there is and you are not late anymore.

A foreclosure can stay on your credit report for over ten years. It will have a significant and negative impact on your score.
It depends entirely on the company as to whether they report it or not. They can report any late payment, even if made during the grace period. If they don't report it, it will not affect your credit. If they do report it, it will show up in the credit reports.
Negative credit information remains on a report 7 years from the last date of activity. In other words, the last date you made a payment. I recommend that you settle the debt with the stipulation that the negative entry is removed.
It sometimes takes a month or two to be added as a negative on your credit report.
You would probably just be charged a late fee. And there would be a negative comment on your credit report as well.

It'll continue to cause a negative effect on your report. More than likely cause problems if you attempt to get future credit. At least until the SOL expires. CRA's are never in a hurry to keep consumer's CR current.
PAYING a tax lien has no effect on your credit. What would affect your credit score would be to have the lien released. This is the legal disposition to a lien. Have the release recorded at the same courthouse and send the proof of payment and the release to the credit bureaus. Tax liens have no statute of limitations for how long they can show on your credit report. Having the release recorded and shown on your credit triggers the 7 year countdown for when these public records will be shielded. According to Experian the payment of a tax lien, (which do in fact have statute of limitations of 7 years from the date of payment)payment of a tax lien and the subsequent reporting of the release WILL have a negative effect on your credit score. The logic in the world of credit scoring is this; Once a payment has been made on an old account, this constitutes "activity" on a derogatory credit entry. Recent activity on a derogatory account (even though payment should be considered "good") is considered a negative when computing scores.
As a general rule the answer is no. Collection agencies will report this to the credit bureau as being settled for less than what was due, which can have a negative impact on your credit report. While paying this money could seem like an effort to repair your credit, it actually can damage it. A situation like this often results from a debt being old and about to fall off of your credit report. If you pay the money to the collection agency then it will stamp a record of such payment for an amount less than the amount originally due. The worst part is that such a record will stay in your credit file for another seven years from the day the payment was received! If you don't make the payment the negative report resulting from that will probably fall off of your credit report much sooner.

If you are talking about a cell phone, yes it will. The goofy thing about cell phone contracts that even if you pay on time every time, they will not report the good. Now if you miss a payment, or fail to comply with their terms they will report you as a negative to the credit bureaus.
