no, a ball and socket joint
I would say it is an example of a ball and socket joint.

Door is the example of hinge joint where horizontal and vertical movements are restrained.
No.
False. Hinge joints can only move in one axis like your jaw or elbow. The hip is a ball-and-socket joint which can move in all axis.

The hip joint (iliofemoral joint) is a ball-and-socket joint that provides a wide range of movement. Its main purpose is to provide articulation for the femur bone.
