Yes, this is because people at different geological points on earth see different angles of the illuminated light of the moon. Therefor they see a different phase at different times.
No. The phase is the phase, no matter your gaze.No, but it will appear to be oriented a different way depending on your location.
The phase of the moon depends on its position relative to the Earth and the Sun. As the moon orbits the Earth, its position changes and different amounts of sunlight reflect off its surface, creating the different phases we see from Earth.
All places have the same moon phase because the moon takes 27 days to revolve around the Earth and the Earth takes 24 hours to rotate. The speed of rotation is faster than the moon's revolution making the moon appear unmoving and all parts of Earth having the same moon phase.
In the new Moon phase.

Different ways of seeing the moon from the earth
Yes, the moon's orbit around Earth affects the moon phase. As the moon orbits Earth, the angle between the sun, moon, and Earth change, causing different portions of the moon to be illuminated by sunlight, resulting in the different moon phases we observe.
All places have the same moon phase because the moon takes 27 days to revolve around the Earth and the Earth takes 24 hours to rotate. The speed of rotation is faster than the moon's revolution making the moon appear unmoving and all parts of Earth having the same moon phase.
The moon phases that change the appearance of the moon as seen from Earth are caused by the relative positions of the sun, Earth, and moon. The major phases include new moon, first quarter, full moon, and third quarter, with each phase showing a different amount of illuminated surface to Earth.

The crescent Moon implies a gibbous Earth, as seen from the Moon.
As seen from the moon, the Earth is a brighter source of light than the moon is as seen from the Earth. This also depends upon the phase of the Earth, just as the brightness of the moon varies by phase. A full moon and a full Earth are in the brightest phase.
It depends on when you're talking about. The moon moves about the earth constantly, which means we see different areas at different times. The "phases" are caused by our own shadow falling across the moon and shading different parts of it, so which phase the moon is in depends on what day it is.
