As a rule of thumb the first tenor part in a TTBB arrangement will be the melody and likely mostly be higher in pitch than the second tenor, but that may not always be true.

In Barbershop Quartet, the division is Bass/Baritone/Lead/Tenor, and in that the Tenor is nearly always higher.

Yes. The tenor is the highest male voice. However, a baritone can have the same range as a tenor, but the baritone will have a deeper, heavier sound and is more comfortable lower.
