The statement is true. The metatarsophalangeal joints occur where the phalanges meet the metatarsals.
It depends on the phalanges in question. The distal phalanges in the four fingers and toes articulate with the intermediate phalanges. The intermediate phalanges articulate with the proximal phalanges and the proximal phalanges articulate with the metacarpals of the hand and the metatarsals of the toes. The same is true for the thumb and big toe except that neither one has an intermediate phalanges.
The phalanges, or toe bones, are distal to the metatarsals. They are farther away from the origin of the lower limb.
Distal to the metatarsals are the phalanges. The great toe (hallux) has two phalanges where as all of the other toes have three each. The proximal phalanges attach the the metatarsals via the metatarsal phalangeal joints. Proximal to the metatarsals are the tarsals. The first, second, and third cuneiforms articulate with the first, second and third metatarsals. The fourth metatarsal articulates with the cuboid and the head of the fifth metatarsal is its own projection that can be felt on the lateral foot.
The metatarsals are the bones in the feet that are between the ankle bones (the tarsals) and the toes (the phalanges).

Yes, but only in the feet.
No, the metatarsals are the bones of the instep, or foot. The phlanges are the toes and their connecting bones.
The metatarsals can be found between the phalanges and tarsals.

The human hand has 27 bones: the carpus or wrist account for 8; the metacarpals or palm contains five; the remaining fourteen are digital bones; fingers and thumb. The human foot has 26 bones in the hind-foot, the mid-foot, and the forefoot.
The bones of the leg.
