The word "transitive" is not a verb, it's an adjective. A transitive verb is an action verb that has a direct object.
spoke is a transitive verb if the sentence contains a direct object for it. Example of transitive use: He spoke a few words of wisdom to the group. Intransitive: She spoke pleasantly to me.
It can be used as both a transitive and intransitive verb.

Transitive
Transitive nouns don't exist. There are, however, transitive verbs. Transitive verbs must have a direct object. For example, "holds" is a transitive verb because it requires a direct object. "She holds" is not a complete thought, but "she holds flowers" is.
Yes. Any verb that takes a direct object is a transitive verb (as in: Lady GaGa HAS a ________).
"Long" is an adjective, not a verb. To figure out if a verb is transitive or intransitive use a direct object to test it. If you can abutt a direct object to a verb without a preposition it is transitive. If not it is intransitive. I buy a school. (Makes sense, a little unorthodox but OK, "buy" is transitive.) I come a school. (Makes no sense, "come" needs prepositions like "to" or "from".)
"Vt" is an abbreviation for "transitive verb." In linguistic terms, a transitive verb is a verb that requires an object to complete its meaning.
No, a transitive verb is a verb that requires both a direct subject and one or more objects. Some auxilliary (helping) verbs are, however, transitive verbs.
