Sorting data is very important. It is a critical element of Access and all databases. Databases are for manipulating data and sorting is one way of manipulating data. We frequently need data to be in order. It makes things easier to find, like the way having names in order in a phonebook makes it easier to find them. It can also bring similar things together, so you know where duplicates occur. It can also help you to spot things that are missing or not put in correctly, because you will notice they are not in the expected place when you have sorted them. So there are lots of reasons for using sorting and that is why it is so important.

No. MS Access is a component of MS Office, but you do not need the other applications (e.g. Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc.) to run Access. However, there are many shared resources between MS Access and other MS Office applications. Obviously, if you remove (uninstall) MS Excel from your MS Office collection and delete all your spreadsheets, you will not be able to import Excel data to Access.
