When an electric current is reversed in an electromagnet, the magnetic field also reverses.
In that case, the magnetic field will also be reversed.
Flow of the current.
In that case, the magnetic field caused by the current would also be reversed. As for the wire itself, it would feel a force in the opposite direction, due to the interaction of the magnetic fields.
the wire would be deflected perpendicular to the magnetic field in the opposite direction.

The idea is that the magnetic field of the device reacts with the external magnetic field. If the current is reversed, the magnetic field would also be reversed, and the reading would be the opposite.

You can reverse the direction of the magnetic field by reversing the direction of the electrical current.

Yes. If a current is reversed, the magnetic field is reversed as well.
the wire would be deflected perpendicular to the magnetic field in the opposite direction.
When you wrap the wire around the nail, make certain that you wrap the wire all in one direction. You need to do this because the direction of a magnet field depends on the direction of the electric current creating it. The movement of electric charges creates a magnetic field. If you could see the magnetic field around a wire that has electricity flowing through it, it would look like a series of circles around the wire. If an electric current is flowing directly towards you, the magnetic field created by it circles around the wire in a counter-clockwise direction. If the direction of the electric current is reversed, the magnetic field reverses also and circles the wire in a clockwise direction. If you wrap some of the wire around the nail in one direction and some of the wire in the other direction, the magnetic fields from the different sections fight each other and cancel out, reducing the strength of your magnet.How_does_a_electromagnet_work
yes*edit: don't confuse moving with changing. A change in magnetic field strength/direction will induce an electric current.
by running electric current all through a wire a magnetic field is created
