When reading flat key signatures, it is the second to last flat: The order of the flats go as such: B flat, E flat, A Flat, D flat, G flat, C flat, F flat. In this case that would make A being the second to last flat, thus the key would be A-Flat Major or f Minor.
When working with flats, the second to last flat is the key signature. The exception here being when only one flat is in the key signature - this would be the key of 'F.' The order of flats are as follows: B-flat, E-flat, A-flat, D-flat, G-flat... etc.
In the order of flats in key signatures, even if the melody skips the B-flat, the key would contain it, because there is no such key with only an E-flat.
The key signature for F major has one flat (B flat) , while the key signature for F minor has four flats (B flat, E flat, A flat, and D flat).
The name of the scale is whatever the second to the last flat is. For example, if you have 3 flats, B flat E flat and A flat, the name of the scale is E flat, because it is the second to the last flat.
Well you find a B and go to the black key on the left
Most likely a table or flat surface.
E flat

Starting with B flat, the third black key in the group of three, the next note would be D flat, the next black key. E flat would be the next note also the next black key. E natural is the white key one to the right then the next white key which would be F natural. The final note is A flat which is in the middle of the three black keys.
The key signature is E flat major, which is also, C minor, the relative minor of E flat major. You can find out what flat key signature you're in by finding the second to last flat (in this case E flat). It is the major version of that key signature!
Yes. That note would be flat (or sharp, depending how you look at it) throughout the whole piece, unless there is a change of key.

Look it up on YouTube. If you can't, the song is in F-Sharp Major and it begins on E-Flat. The left hand chords are, in order: E-Flat D-Flat B A-Flat B-Flat
The key of A flat major has four flats: B flat, E flat, A flat and D flat.
