The north star is usually the first star in the night-sky. NO!

Depending on ones position, in the Northern hemisphere Sirius, Arcturus, Rigel are the most visible on rising and across the sky. "Polaris" is of a smaller magnitude and thus not seen so readily.

One may also refer to planets as being the first "star" in the sky, Venus and Jupiter 'rising' similarly bright depending on your latitude and obviously longitude.

The origin and name of the first star in the universe is unknown. It is likely that the first star no longer exists, having burned out billions of years ago.

There was no first sighting of stars. The stars have been visible in the night sky since long before people evolved.
