Yes.
Incandescent bulbs give about 10 lumens of light per watt of electric power Halogens give about 13 lumens per watt CFLs give about 50 lumens per watt So it depends on the type of bulb.
A 50 watt incandescent bulb is about 650 lumens.
Lumens measures how bright it is, watts measures how much electric power it uses up. An old-type incandescent bulb produces about 10 lumens per watt. A halogen produce about 13 lumens per watt. A fluorescent (energy saving) bulb produces about 50 lumens per watt. LEDs produce somewhere around the same as a fluorescent.
A Kilowatt hour is 1000 watts per hour. A 50 watt bulb will use just 50 watts per hour. Therefore over 12 hours the 50 watt bulb will use 50*12 watts = 600 watts or 0.6 of a kilowatt hour.
A 50 watt bulb designed to run on 12 volts takes 4.17 amps. A 50 watt bulb designed to run on 230 volts takes 0.217 amps.
A 75 bulb will use more electricity.
Yes. It just won't be as bright.

Probably a 50 watt halogen

No, it will not be. You will need at least a 50 watt halogen for outdoor lighting.
Incandescent: 10-12 lumens per watt CFL: 50 lumens per watt.
