Any temperature below 0 Kelvin or -273.15 Celsius is impossible.

If you are asking how much pressure you would have to compress methane to in order to liquify it at room temperature, the answer is that methane won't liquify at room temperature. The critical temperature for methane is -87.2 degrees centigrade. Above that temperature it will not liquify no matter how much pressure you apply. At -82.7 degrees centigrade it would take a pressure of 45.96 bar to get it to liquify. See: http://www.chem.purdue.edu/gchelp/liquids/critical.html
Propane liquifies at a pressure of about 127 psi (pounds per square inch).
Natural gas can be liquefied at a pressure of around 2,500 pounds per square inch (psi) at -260°F (-162°C). This high pressure and low temperature combination allows the gas to condense into a liquid form, making it easier to transport and store.
Nitrogen liquifies at a temperature of -196 degrees Celsius or -321 degrees Fahrenheit.
An ideal gas is, precisely, an idealization - a ficticious substance that will NOT liquify, but remain a gas, and have a volume that is exactly proportional to the temperature (at a given pressure). Real gases are an approximation to an ideal gas, under a wide variety of conditions, but at low temperatures, or high pressures, there are discrepancies.
The higher the temperature, the more movement in the molecules, causing the substance to liquify, or turn to gas, whichever, more quickly than if there were no vibrations in the molecules.
At 1atm pressure, nitrogen should be cooled below -196C in order to liquify. When it comes to industrial purposes, a higher pressure is usually used as the meting point rises.
One way is to liquify air using high pressure and low temperature, then fractional distillation to separate the air into its components, including nitogen.

To liquify a gas, it must be cooled below its critical temperature while maintaining a pressure above its critical pressure. This causes the gas to condense into a liquid state, where the intermolecular forces are strong enough to overcome the kinetic energy of the particles. This process is typically achieved through compression and cooling in a refrigeration system.

For example, at a certain temperature a material is a solid - the atoms or molecules hold tight together. If the temperature is increased, the atoms or molecules move faster, and can eventually have enough energy to rip apart. In this case, the substance will change from solid to liquid (or directly to a gas, depending on the circumstances).With respect to pressure: basically, a high pressure changes the distance between the atoms or molecules; this, in turn, affects the forces between them.
Pressurised gases will eventually liquify.
Yes, carbon dioxide will liquify under high pressure.
