you might need a guitar amp first
Possibly. In my experience the bass will not work through a guitar amp?
yes
Yes, any bass amp works with any bass guitar
No, The Amp is just a accessory and is your choice to get it or not
it depends on the type of guitar you got bass or electric, any amp will work for electric guitar but not all amps work with electric bass.
Never use any bass with any guitar amp. Guitar amps are not meant to handle the lower register of a bass, and the speakers on your guitar amp will blow out if you try to play a bass through them.
Bass amplifiers are not optimised for guitars, but technically? yes, they work with guitar.

No. You can use any amp with any guitar.
Good question. A bass will work with any bass amp. That's the only restriction, you have to use a bass amp. If you try a regular guitar amp you may over drive it too much and damage the speaker. Hope this helps.
Of course. You will not get that "in your face" low end sound, and if you crank up the volume, you can blow a speaker out, but if you're sensible about it, it should work fine.
