Yes. Roughly speaking, most, but not all, types of energy can be converted into other types.
Heat. In fact you can convert part of the heat into other types of energy, only if there is a heat difference between two objects - but you can never convert all heat into other types of energy.

It isn't. Sooner or later some mechanical energy will be wasted and converted to heat. It is also possible to convert other types of energy into mechanical energy.It isn't.

It is possible to convert other types of energy into light, and light into other types of energy; therefore it makes sense to consider that light, too, has an energy content.
Basically, it's easy to transport, and easy to convert to other types of energy.
First it is converted into heat. This is then usually converted to other types of energy through a steam engine.
Light energy
Well, technically you can't CREATE energy, so they just convert other types of energy to electrical energy.
I wouldn't say that electrical energy "uses" other types of energy; probably you mean that you can convert other types of energy to electrical energy. Most types of energy can be converted to electrical energy, or actually all of them (as long as there is some useful energy left) - including heat energy, nuclear energy, chemical energy, mechanical energy, etc.
Other than what? You can convert just about any type of energy into any other type; as long as entropy is not at maximum - for example, when all the energy is in the form of uniformly distributed heat energy.
No. You can only convert thermal energy to other types of energy if you have a difference of temperatures between two objects, and then you can only convert part of the thermal energy. The remainder will flow from the hotter object to the colder object.
