The population of deer ticks, or black-legged ticks (Ixodes scapularis), varies widely depending on factors such as geographic location, climate, and local wildlife populations. They are most commonly found in the northeastern and north-central United States, as well as parts of Canada. Estimates of their numbers can range from a few to millions in a given area, but precise global or national figures are difficult to ascertain due to their fluctuating populations and habitat preferences. Regular monitoring is essential for understanding and managing tick populations in specific regions.
Both. Ticks are essentially parasites and can have bacteria that may affect a deer's health. Too many ticks can also harm a deer.
They don't live together intentionally, but because deer do take refuge under trees and in brush, and ticks live in trees and brush, they're thrust together just like humans are...Because deer tick suck the deers blood. The deer is the deer ticks' host.
No, ticks are not born in deer feces. Ticks hatch from eggs laid by adult female ticks, typically in leaf litter or grassy areas. While deer can host ticks and provide a food source for them, the ticks themselves do not originate from deer feces. Instead, they are found in environments where they can easily attach to passing hosts.

Well, let's follow this line of reasoning. Deer ticks cause Lyme disease,deer live in the forest with coniferous trees, the ticks live on the deer, so I would say yes.

Ticks consume blood. Deer ticks are not as particular as their name implies; they'll happily eat blood from animals other than deer.
Usually on the deer, but also on other furry mammals.
