Crystallines can liquefy under pressure if it is sufficiently high. Generally the opposite happens where they become more dense and compressed as the pressure increases.
Once you get out to the orbit of Jupiter, and anything farther from the sun than Jupiter, the temperatures are low enough to liquefy methane.
The critical temperature of a gas is the temperature at or above which no amount of pressure, however great, will cause the gas to liquefy.
A gas under normal pressure. Methane has a boiling point of -1600C. It does depend on the pressure at extemely high pressures methane will be a liquid.
I suppose the answer would be 1 Atm. It is only 0.00017% methane in our atmosphere, but the pressure is still 1 Atm, not of methane alone, but gases combined. but this is only deducted from the possibility of extracting methane from our atmosphere. There is not enough information in the question to give an accurate answer. Regards.

It will stay as air. To liquefy it, it has to be pressurised, allowed to cool, then made very cold by de-pressurising it. So being cols will liquefy it. Pressure will not, at any achievable pressure.
The critical pressure of a substance is the pressure required to liquefy a gas at its critical temperature. Some examples are shown below.
Generally speaking, methane gas can be "soluble" in liquid nitrogen if it was bubbled into it. Liquid nitrogen is cold enough to liquefy methane gas, and the liquid methane would then be miscible in the liquid nitrogen.

It liquefy the gas at its critical temperature
To pack more gas into the container it is required to liquefy under pressure
The critical temperature of a gas is the temperature at or above which no amount of pressure, however great, will cause the gas to liquefy.
LNG is liquefied natural gas, while LPG is liquefied petroleum gas.LNG is mostly methane which is temporarily cooled in order to liquefy the gas. LNG must be refigerated to a cryogenic temperature of about -162C (-260F) in order to liquefy the gas and stays at or slightly above atmospheric pressure. LNG must be refrigerated because room temperature is above the critical point of methane, meaning no liquid can be condensed at this temperature (no matter what the pressure is).LPG is a mixture of propane and butane (in no specific proportion) which is stored in a pressurized container and is stored at room temperature. Butane and propane have a higher critical point, and therefore pressurization is sufficient to liquefy the fuel.
The answer will depend on the pressure under which the gas is kept.
The inner core of the Earth, which is composed of metal rather than rock, does remains solid because it is under immense pressure.
No. Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP) corresponds to 273 K (0° Celsius) and 1 atm (1.0132501 bar). The critical point of methane is 190.6 K (−82.6 °C) and 46 bar so to get ANY liquid methane, you have to cool it below −82.6 °C and probably put it under pressure - the colder you get it, the less pressure required to liquefy it.
