Brass instruments are made of immensely long tubes of metal. It they weren't curved in any way, the majority of them would stretch more than 20 feet. They were straight instruments (herald trumpets) before the technology was developed to curve them. They way they are curved is set by ergonomics, how people are. They try to make the instruments "fit" a person the best possible way so that it isn't a problem to hold/play them.

No. Trombone is part of the brass family, even if it has valves. A woodwind instrument will most likely have a reed while brass instruments have cone-shaped mouthpieces.

The tubing wraps around the way it does because if it was all one straight line, the horns would be too long to play.

Brass instruments are primarily made of brass, which is a metal alloy of copper and zinc. They are called brass instruments because the majority of their construction is made of brass, even though some parts, like valves and slides, may be made of other materials such as steel or nickel silver.
A trombone has a slide, which other brass instruments lack.
