Is standard time being phased out in favor of daylight savings time?

No, standard time is not being phased out in favor of daylight saving time. Daylight saving time is a practice of adjusting the clocks forward by one hour in the spring to extend daylight in the evenings, and then adjusting them back by one hour in the fall. Standard time, on the other hand, is the time that is used for the majority of the year, when the clocks are not adjusted.

Why is daylight savings time called daylight savings time?

In "Daylight Saving Time," "Daylight Saving" is being used as an adjective - as in time that is saving daylight. "Daylight Savings" would be a noun itself, and makes little sense applied as an adjective in this context. Many people use the word savings, not knowing the correct way to say it. Edit; "Daylight Saving" time.

Why is daylight saving in March this year?

Daylight savings is in March this year because of the Energy Policy Act in 2005. The Act extended Daylight Saving Time (DST) by four weeks, starting from the second Sunday in March and ending on the first Sunday in November. The four weeks were added with the hope that businesses, homes, and other energy using sources would use less energy. Whether or not less energy is being used, or that more energy is being saved has yet to be seen.
