It's not a sobriety test, it's meant to prove that you are intoxicated, not prove your sobriety. If you deny your field sobriety test or breathalyzer you can get your license suspended.
One may be required to take a field sobriety test if one has been pulled over by a police officer who suspects one is under the influence of alcohol. The test consists of tasks that see if one's coordination is impaired.
Field sobriety tests are physical or cognitive tests that determine if a driver is intoxicated. Some examples of sobriety tests in Utah are the walk and turn test, the finger to nose test and the finger count test. Most field sobriety tests combine two or more of these methods.

If an officer has reasonable suspicion to believe you have been drinking and the drinking is related to a crime, he may administer a field sobriety test. Put another way, without reasonable suspicion to believe you have been drinking, an officer under no duty to administer a field sobriety test. Reasonable suspicion is not probable cause. It is a lesser standard.
Yes. If you are a minor, you do not have to be drunk to be ticketed. All they have to do is find open containers of alchohol in your possession.
A police officer needs only reasonable suspicion of driving while intoxicated to ask you to submit to a sobriety test, actually called an SFST: Standard Field Sobriety Test. You are not obligated to submit to such a test. However, if you do not take the test, the officer will act on the observations he has already made of your behavior, and may arrest you for driving under the influence. He will then ask you to submit to a breath or blood test. If you refuse one of those, you will have your driver's license revoked.
