Yes, it still is a question sometimes. Only if the begining words are IF, ARE, IS, WOULD, SHOULD, WHAT, CAN. Or could
that's a Spanish question mark
Mark the text with a question mark.
The upside down question mark is not a punctuation mark used in the English language. Rather, it is used in Spanish in front of a question, with a regular question mark placed at the end.
Question mark. That is a stupid question.
A number is not a form of punctuation, it would become confusing to people to add numbers as punctuation. Therefore none of the numbers should replace the question mark
How amazing! As it is not a question, an exclamation (!) would be used.How are you? Is a question, a question mark (?) would be used.

because if it didnt have a question mark what question would be a question because the question had a question with a question?
If it is just a sentence containing asked a question mark would not be necessary. A question mark would be necessary if the sentence was asking a question.
In casual writing you might be able to replace a question mark with a period, especially in dialog to indicate intonation, but usually the sentence structure of questions is different, so that a period will not be correct. For example, "Where did you go?" is correct as a question, but "Where did you go." is not correct.
what should replace the question mark and why?

To help you choose the best punctuation, I would need to see the sentence you are referring to.
It would not be common practice to have a colon and question mark ever in sequence.
In the United States, the question mark usually goes before the closed quotes. For example: you asked, "Does the question mark go before or after the quotes?" In that case the question mark indicates your statement in quotes is a question. The statements, "for example." and "you asked," are not part of the question. Your punctuation should indicate that. In the rare situation where the entire sentence would be a question, and the last part would be quoted, it would be acceptable to put the question mark after the quotes. If the entire sentence was a quotation, the question mark would go inside the quotes. In American English, the punctuation exists for the benefit of the reader. It should serve to make what you have written more readable and more understandable.
Normally, you would not use both a question mark and an exclamation point in the same sentence. If a sentence is interrogative, it is not an exclamation. An interrogative sentence ends in a question mark, and an exclamation ends in an exclamation point.
