That depends on the instrument. For example, trumpet music is typically written in treble clef, while trombone and tuba music is in bass clef. And, of course, variations on instruments (bass trumpet) can differ from the convention.
You can play any instrument in any clef, you just need to be able to understand that clef. But yes, saxophone sheet music is generally notated in the treble clef. Well, at least I know for sure that tenor and alto sax music is, but those are the only types of sax I have played. I can't say for sure that baritone and soprano sax are.

The answer is no.I tried it and i can't.You can play either with alto sax either with tenor sax.No with both of them. If you mean playing a song that has a tenor sax on an alto sax, you have to transpose all the notes and the key signature down 5 half steps.
