The Earth was formed approximately 4.55 billion years ago (plus or minus about 1%). For about the first billion years of the planet, it was hot and inhospitable to the lifeforms that currently exist on Earth. It was only after the Earth cooled and the oceans formed that life could be supported.
This is unknown. Any estimates on the age of the Earth are largely conjecture but most agree the age of the Earth is in the billions of years old. From a Christian viewpoint, The Bible simply states that "in the beginning" God created the heavens and the Earth. We have no idea how long ago that beginning was.

With a reasonable degree of certainty, yes. Based on radiometric dating of rocks on Earth and on the moon Earth is estimated to be about 4.5 billion years old, give or take a few tens of millions of years.
