(1) The defendant's bond amount will be set at arraignment. If you don't post it at that time they will remain in jail until someone does put the bond up. Your choice. (2) Yes, the bond amount CAN be amended by the court (raised or lowered) after it is initially set.
If no one can post the bond, you will remain in jail until your case goes to trial.

Not at that time. As long as you are allowed to be "out on bond" during the course of the trial, rather than held in jail, the bond will remain in effect. You will not be able to get your bond returned until the case is concluded and you're are found either guilty or not guilty.
