There are two main types of paint in common use: water based and oil based. The water based paints contain various substances including latex that are dissolved or suspended in the water. Oil base paints contain resins dissolved or suspended in oil, typically linseed oil.
So, not every paint uses water as a carrier.

yes, most paints are solvents!
Because water is polar (as is salt) whereas paint-thinner is not polar. Consider the rule "like dissolves like". non-polar covalent solvents (paint thinner) will not dissolve polar solutes (salt)
Yes, every solution is a mixture of solvent (water) and solute (ammonia).
The oxygen dissolved in water is a measure of dissolved oxygen (DO).
Most acrylic paint is thinned with water. The instructions regarding this are on every paint can I've ever seen. They ALWAYS specify the cleanup liquids and thinner. - Be aware that the term 'acrylic' covers many types of paint.
Not always; tap water is clear but contains many dissolved ions.
Your house could flood and it would desolve
The water is called solvent, the compounds to be dissolved are solutes
salt when dissolved in water will become an acidic solution
Dissolved minerals are usually in the form of ions. Therefore water that is free of dissolved minerals is called deionized water.
This is the phenomenon of diffusion.
