When ancient animals and plants died, their bodies might be covered in silt, mud, sand, etc. Over an extremely long time, the sediment may be turned into sedimentary rock. The preserved remains are what we know as fossils.
Sedimentary rock is where we look for fossils.
Fossils are most likely to be found in sedimentary rock.
As sedimentary rock is deposited at over time, you can find fossils in it.

You would most likely find fossils in sedimentary rock. Sedimentary rocks are formed from layers of sediment that accumulate over time, which can help preserve fossils in the rock.
Not necessarily. While nearly all fossils, including seashells, are found in sedimentary rock, most sedimentary rock does not contain fossils. Even then, those fossils will not necessarily be seashells. If you do find a rock with seashells, though, you can be pretty much guaranteed that it is sedimentary.
Quartz is a mineral not a rock. Fossils can be found associated with quartz in sedimentary rock not inside the quartz.
Fossils are formed in sedimentary rock because the rock is formed at temperatures that do not destroy the fossils like the igneous rocks would.
