In the Aeneid why do the Trojans assume that the Greeks have sailed for home?
In Book II of the Aeneid the Trojans notice that the Greek ships have gone from the beach in front of Troy. In fact the Greeks have only moved their navy around the headland to Tenedos - but the Trojans don't know this. (Vergil makes it clear that the Trojans are ready to believe that the Greeks are gone, because that is what they want to believe). The Trojans leave the city and walk around the abandoned Greek camp. They find the Wooden Horse, and they capture Sinon - a Greek warrior who claims to have deserted the Greek army. Sinon confirms that the Greeks have abandoned the siege - but he is a carefully planted spy. (Sinon will later be the one who opens the horse once it is within Troy's walls).

During the siege of Troy (and shortly before the start of the Iliad story) Agamemnon (commander in chief of the Greek expeditionary force) captures a young Trojan woman called Chryseis and takes her back to his camp as a slave and concubine. Chryseis is the daughter of the Trojan priest of Apollon, Chryses. Chryses comes to Agamemnon and asks to ransom his daughter. Agamemnon refuses to allow Chryseis to be ransomed. Apollo is infuriated at the insult offered to his priest, and sends a plague against the Greek ships.
Do archaeologists and historians believe that the Trojan war really happened?
Almost beyond the shadow of a doubt. The tale is related to us from a number of different sources, some of the historic, and they all tell basically the same story. Some elements are obviously mythic, because they didn't have other explanations for the happenings (like the plague that struck the Greek camp after the sacking of the Temple of Apollo).
Was the Trojan horse made out of the Greek ships?
Most likely, yes. You have to think, it had been 10 years, there had been a lot of fighting and a lot of dead, not to mention the plague that spread through the Greek camp. I imagine they left with far fewer men than they came with, and thus, needed fewer ships to get home.
