Yes, your payment history will still be a part of your credit report as well as the Chapter 7.
The term negative is rather confusing. If the account did not have a balance it would not have been included in the bankruptcy. Any account included in a bankruptcy will remain on the report for the requred length of time, open accounts would be seven years, they will be marked included in bankruptcy. The BK accounts listing will remain for 10.
An Adverse account means a delinquent account. An account that has not received on time monthly payments, or payments at all.
Yes and no. If an account was already charged-off before the bankruptcy, it can be reported as a charge-off. By law, the creditors must charge-off accounts included in bankruptcy, BUT they can not REPORT that charge-off if it happens AFTER the bankuptcy. Negative reporting on discharged debts is a violation of the permanent injunction of the discharge.
Your credit report will show both the accounts (which were listed first) and the legal entry of the bankruptcy in the public records portion of your credit report. Once a bankruptcy is discharged, credit grantors should update the account listing (called a trade line) and make sure that no derogatory information is showing (like past due balance or collection account notations) EXCEPT for the "included in bankruptcy" statement. This is what SHOULD happen. It's up to you to follow up and make sure that your credit report looks like it is supposed to after a bankruptcy.
The accounts affected by your BK filing should drop-off after seven years, under the normal course of business. You will want to ensure that they correctly show "Discharged through Bankruptcy." If they do not, you should dispute them, because they are adding to your injury and double-counting against you. If the CRA cannot verify the status of the account within 30 days, the account could come off sooner. Be diligent in monitoring your report after bankruptcy to ensure that all accounts are correctly reported. Errors can work in your favor. Also, be sure to keep copies of all of your bankruptcy documents in case you need to prove an item was indeed included in your petition. Good luck!

"Included in" bankruptcy? No. It stops any interest or penalties on unsecured debts. If the bankruptcy fails, the accrued interest or penalties will be added to the account, and the statute of limitations starts ticking from where it was on the date of filing.
Joint accounts are included in an individual bankruptcy claim. Just how much of the value of the joint account is considered as your asset depends on history of the account, the type of account, and statutory details for certain types of assets / debts.
Any debt that you accumulate before your bankruptcy filing and have listed on your petition will be eliminated when you receive your discharge as long as your creditors do not file an injunction against you. After you receive your discharge you are welcome and able to open new credit accounts but any debt you accumulate will not be considered a part of the bankruptcy you filed before opening the account.
An Adverse account means a delinquent account. An account that has not received on time monthly payments, or payments at all.
Yes, you can file a Bankruptcy if you have a retirement account. Most retirement accounts are not considered to be part of the bankruptcy state, and are out of the creditors' reach. This includes traditional 401(ks), IRAs, government retirement accounts such as CalSTRS and more.

In this instance the account would generally be noted as "included in bankruptcy. The impact the open account would have is insignificant, compared to the bankruptcy.
If creditors believe the person is trying to remove funds from accounts to keep them from bankruptcy proceedings; creditors can petition the court to freeze all accounts/assets. A bank cannot arbitraily seize account funds unless the depositer has a loan with the bank which includes a set off provision. Even then the bankruptcy trustee can request the funds be returned and included as assets in the bankruptcy.
Payments can be made from out of the frozen accounts simply by authorizing the bank to transfer the money in the frozen account directly to the creditor.
