Any active network device will do that. If this is a test question, answer "A repeater", as that is the only function of such device.

In truth, any device that takes a signal from one end and transmits it through another end will "boost" (amplify) the signal - or, rather, it will send out a "new" signal carrying the same information. Such devices include all types of hubs, switches and routers. Also, as mentioned above, repeaters.

If you meant "cable" as in "cable tv" - then it's the modem/router, usually the first device hooked up into the cable. As I've mentioned above, however, these devices take the signal in and put out a new signal on the other end, so they don't really "amplify it" as such (usually processing of the signal is involved).

Why you add a positive voltage to the ac signal to allow a transistor to amplify ac signal?

It depends on how you bias the transistor. If you ground the emitter, which is very common, you will need to offset the input signal so you can amplify the full voltage swing.
