Orbiting the Earth above the equator is true of geostationary weather satellites and they have infrared sensors to transmit images of the entire hemisphere continuously. All of those things are true except that while they are moving in orbit they appear motionless.

Does the weather move west to east all over the world?
"Weather" designates atmospheric conditions in a given geographic area for a given period. Hence, weather cannot be said to move at al. The above answer is quie true. However, earth surface winds in the northern hempishere that create local weather do generally tend to move west to east, opposite of the Earths rotation.
True or False An artificial satellite in a high orbit will slow down and lose altitude due to the pull of Earth's gravity?
False. Why would it slow down? There is no friction in a high orbit; a satellite can orbit indefinitely. Only in low orbits will satellites slow down and fall from orbit, and the cause is the friction of the extremely tenuous final traces of Earth's atmosphere.

Why is the acceleration vector is always at 90 degrees to the velocity vector?
That's only true when the object is in circular motion.The circular motion is the result of a force (which produces acceleration)that's always perpendicular to the object's velocity.Like the gravitational force between the Earth and a geostationary satellite,or the tension in the string of a yo-yo that's doing circles.
