Yellow for School Zones and white for just about everything else.
Crosswalks are typically marked with white painted lines. However, not all pedestrian crosswalks are painted. It's best to use judgement when slowing down at intersections or yielding as to what would constitute the crosswalk.

IN the crosswalk. They're not outside of the protected space until they cross the outer edge of the marked line and step onto the unmarked pavement.

Crosswalks A crosswalk is that part of the pavement where the sidewalk lines would extend across the street and it is set aside for pedestrian traffic. Every intersection has a pedestrian crosswalk whether or not there are painted lines on the street. Most crosswalks are at corners but they can also be in the middle of the block. Before turning a corner, watch for people about to cross the street. Pedestrians have the right of way in crosswalks. Crosswalks are often marked with white lines. Yellow crosswalk lines may be painted at school crossings. Most often, crosswalks in residential areas are not marked. Some crosswalks have flashing lights to warn you that pedestrians may be crossing. Look for pedestrians and be prepared to stop, whether or not the lights are flashing. To get more information on this matter and other California motor vehicle laws goto http://www.dmv.ca.gov/pubs/hdbk/driver_handbook_toc.htm and click on the PDF version of the drivers handbook.
By law, motorists are REQUIRED to stop for ANY pedestrian at any MARKED crosswalk with crosswalk lines on both sides. At some crosswalks with no traffic light, pedestrians are not required to wait although since all drivers are not that smart to automatically stop for pedestrians in crosswalks, it may be wise for the pedestrian to consider their own safety and wait anyway.
yes. however make sure to check your state's specific definition of intersection. For example in Arizona the intersection is an extension of the curb lines. This is a much smaller area then in California where an intersection is defined by the crosswalk lines.
