That's the point in the sky called the "Vernal Equinox" ... the point where the sun
appears to cross the celestial equator on its way north, on March 21 each year.
'Declination' of +30
No, because there is no such thing as the celestial sphere. So there is no inner surface of a celestial sphere.
If you are at the equator, the Earth's celestial pole would be at the northern horizon. However, because of atmospheric haze, you would not be able to see Polaris. Below about 5 degrees north, Polaris is not visible.
The Taurus constellation is located in the northern hemisphere sky during the winter months and is in the NQ1 Quadrant with a 19 degree declination. It is close to Aries.

Yes. "Declination" on the celestial coordinate system is the counterpart of "latitude" on the terrestrial coordinate system. Positive and negative declination correspond respectively to north and south latitude.

The Celestial Poles are the infinite extension of the North and South Poles from the Earth into space. The North Star or Polaris, is within 1 degree of the North Celestial Pole. There is no equivalent star for the South Celestial Pole.
The coordinates of Capricornus in the celestial sphere are: Right Ascension 20h 06m 46.4871s - 21h 59m 04.8693s and Declination −8.4043999°- −27.6914144°.
Canopus is located in the constellation Carina in the southern celestial hemisphere. It is the second brightest star in the night sky after Sirius.

In the celestial coordinate system Polaris is located at the following coordinates: Right Ascension: 02 Hours 48.2 Minutes (measured from 0-24 Hour format) Declination: +89 Degrees 19 Minutes (measured from +90 to -90 Degree format)
The celestial sphere has the Earth at the centre and all the objects in the sky situated on the sphere at infinite distance. Positions of the objects are described by two coordinates, which could be azimuth and elevation, or, in geocentric coordinates, declination and hour-angle.
The headquarters of Celestial Seasonings is located in Boulder, Colorado, United States. It is a popular tea company known for its herbal teas and unique blends.
Fairbanks is located at latitude 64.8 degrees north, so the north celestial pole is always 64.8 degrees above the horizon. Polaris itself is presently about 0.7 degrees from the celestial pole, so its altitude above the horizon will vary between 64.1 and 65.5 degrees during the course of a sidereal day.
"Latitude" and "longitude" are the coordinates used to measure the positions of points on the surface of the earth, referenced to the Equator and Prime Meridian ... both of those are also imaginary marks on the earth's surface, and they turn with the earth. Objects in the sky are located with a similar coordinate system, consisting of Right Ascension, measured east from the Vernal Equinox, and Declination, measured north/south from the Celestial Equator. That system "turns" with the sky. The entire system of celestial, coordinates appears to make a complete rotation around the entire system of terrestrial coordinates, every day. The constellation of Orion is centered at about 15H 30M Right Ascension and about -20 degrees Declination on the celestial coordinate system. That location remains fixed over the latitude of 20 degrees south on the earth, but it passes over every longitude on earth, every day.
