Fins are used to help keep a rocket stable. The only way to find out if more fins will make it more stable is by testing it.

How does gravity affect a bottle rocket as it is ascending and descending?
As a rocket descends, gravity is pulling it down whilst drag is stopping the gravity having some of its power because without the drag the rocket would be pulled down to the ground within a matter of seconds. I don't know how it affects it on its ascent!! Sorry!!
Can model rocket fuel be used to make bottle rockets?
"Model rocket fuel" is basically in the form of single-shot engines. You could, I suppose, strap one to a stick and call it a "bottle rocket", but I don't think it would fly very well (and the engine would likely burn off the stick).

Why do you need a pointy base for a bottle rocket?
Right, just an illustration. Water is the propelllant that forces to bottle rocket upwards. Imagine a hosepipe. If you hold it in your hand the water trickles out slowly. If you put your finger over the end, a fast an strong spary comes out. This is the result of water pressure. Likewise, if the bottom of the bottle were the same diameter as the rest of the bottle, there would be little pressure, and the water would just fall out. The bottleneck of a bottle acts as a funnel, which increases the pressure and cause water to come out faster and last a little longer. This crests a concentrated upward force which propels the bottle upwards.
