PayPal is not a bank you need to have a bank account to open a PayPal account. The reasoning for this is because PayPal pulls the money from your bank to make purchases.
No, you don't have to have a bank account to open a PayPal account, but unless you do have one, you can't become "PayPal Verified". Your PayPal account will initially have sending and receiving limits and to lift these limits (and withdraw any money), you need to register your bank account details to your PayPal account. You can also use a Visa credit card to send and receive payments.
To collect money from PayPal, you can link your bank account to your PayPal account and transfer the funds directly. You can also request a check from PayPal or use a PayPal debit card to access your funds.
You can register your bank (or checking) account to your PayPal account and use that to both send and receive funds. To withdraw money from PayPal to your bank account, you need to go through the verification process.

Yes you can
Yes, you can - you can even use a direct bank account and routing number. However, be sure to read PayPal's policies and recommendations. PayPal will directly deposit AND withdraw into the account you set up. Do you have better protection against a fraudulent charge with a credit card? PayPal also has a new Plug-in that lets you create a short-term credit card with them to use on a website where you can't use PayPal directly.

You don't 'have' to have an account associated with it. If people pay you with paypal payments, then you'll have a positive paypal balance to pay other people with. But without having an associated bank account or credit card, you'll suffer various restrictions on your account, and also it might take much longer to turn the paypal balance into cash in hand or transfer it to a bank account.
No - Paypal is intended as an electronic funds transfer system. You register a bank account with them, and the funds are deducted from that account when you make an online purchase, and elect to use Paypal to pay for it.
You can just use your bank account, if you want. When you set up automatic PayPal payments to pay your eBay seller fees, the money that you owe will be taken from your PayPal balance. If you don't have enough in there, the remainder will be taken from whichever funding source you have added to your PayPal account. Assuming that you only have your bank account registered, the remainder will be taken from there. Should you have both your bank account and a credit card registered, the order that they are used to fund purchases/eBay fees is as follows: PayPal balance Bank account Credit card
No, you cannot use PayPal anonymously for online transactions. PayPal requires users to provide personal information such as their name, address, and bank account or credit card details in order to create an account and make transactions.
