Although it does not say it in Article III, removal of a federal judge must be through the impeachment process on grounds that equate to the reasons that would trigger impeachment proceedings under Article I and II, namely treason, bribery and other high crimes and misdemeanors. Article III does not specify this, but prior federal cases have ruled that this is the standard by which "good behavior" is to be judged.

The Defendant has removed the case to Federal Court and filed an Answer?

When a case is "removed" to federal court, it was originally filed in State court, but then was "removed" or moved to federal court because it presents some sort of federal law issue. An "answer" is when, in the most common case, a defendant "answers" the claims the plaintiff has made against them.
