Margarine is not necessarily a dairy product, but often contains dairy products (such as modified milk ingredients or casein) in its ingredients, and so is not always safe for people who are avoiding milk.
On a nutritional level, butter and margarine are placed into the fat category. Cream may be too, depending on its fat content. On a practical level, yes, cream and butter are dairy products because they are made from milk and milkfat. The classification of margarine would depend on how it was made, which will change from brand to brand. If it is made with buttercream, it will most likely be considered a dairy product. These are, of course, generalizations; the best thing to do is read the label. Margarine is sometimes also made from hydrogenated vegetable oils and also some times from fish liver oils or fats

Margarine is made of hydrogenated oils, butter is made of milk, the melting point of them are different. Butter has a high cholesterol level while light margarine has a low level. Margarine has a yellowish color, while butter has a deep yellow color. Margarine is much more recent than butter.
Margarine is made from refined oils. Butter is made from solidified milk fats. Margarine is not actually a dairy product, although it is kept in the dairy section.
Yes, margarine is OK after a power outage, it will only soften. Margarine is made from water and oil. Butter is made from milk and would not last long without refrigeration.
