In addition to garden variety AM (double sideband, full carrier), Single Sideband may be used on CB, with full, reduced, or suppressed carrier.
The purpose of these variations is to reduce interference on the CB channels, which have been jam-packed since the the 27 MHz Citizens Band was created almost 60 years ago.
No. The only emission mode allowed to CB is AM voice.

A CB radio may not be legally operated after it's been modified by an unlicensed individual. Your question clearly demonstrates the wisdom and necessity of this regulation.
No! CB power amps are very unlawful, and they can interfere with legal radio communications. (Like Amateur Radio)
Sure, you can use it; but it might not do a very good job. If you're listening to AM, you're receiving between 0.5-1.6 MHz, whereas FM is coming to you at 88-108 MHz. The CB antenna is designed to be resonant at 27 MHz.
Four watts out of the box, which is the legal limit set for CB radios by the FCC.
A mobile CB radio.
No, and it's actually illegal to do. CB radios come from the factory transmitting four watts, which is the legal limit.
Sure. Always have been. No license required anymore.
There are many types of emergency radios available. Some of the types of radio available include Ham radio, AM radios, FM radios, CB radios and walkie talkies.
Transmitting over four watts on a CB radio is actually illegal, thus, using a linear amp on a CB is illegal, as well. A linear amp attached to a radio (for argument's sake, we'll assume it's on a type of radio on which the application is legal) simply amplifies the power output. The radio transmits into the amp, the amp amplifies the signal, and transmits it to the antenna.
AM radio is KHz FM radio is MHz AM radio can cover the world. FM radio can cover a county. AM radio is excellent in communication. FM radio is completely worthless, except for good sound quality. AM radio doesn't have as good sound quality as FM. FM is much higher on the radio spectrum than AM.
You could have a number of different radio types in mind, whether it be the vehicle's stereo (which may also be referred to as a head unit), or you might be thinking of a number of two way radios, whether it's a company FM radio or a CB radio.
I do not see how a CB radio could interfere with VoIP service. If the CB radio is creating interference on the line, check your telephone. Or even check your broadband modem to ensure that you are not creating packet loss due to the CB radio.
