No it is in fact not a phospholipid just a lipid. A phospholipid needs a phosphate group and cholesterols molecular formula is C-27 H-46 O and with no Phosphate it can not be a phospholipid.
A phospholipid bi-layer.
The head and tail is a phospholipid molecule
This is called the hydrophobic 'side' of the phospholipid molecule
No... It is a lipid because it is a hormone and hormones are lipids, but it is not a phospholipid.
Yes, that is why one of the membrane's names is, phospholipid bilayer.
This is called the hydrophobic 'side' of the phospholipid molecule

It depends on which lipid bilayer you're talking about. There is the phospholipid bilayer that surrounds eukaryotic cells, cholesterol phospholipid bilayers, protein lipid bilayers, phase transition lipid bilayer, lipid bilayer membrane...
