To draw the field lines for Earth's magnetic field, imagine the lines coming out of the North Pole and curving back into the South Pole in a loop-like fashion. The lines will be closer together near the poles and spread out as they extend towards the equator. Remember that the field lines form closed loops and do not intersect.
No, but at the poles the field (because of the orientation of the field lines) offers the least protection.
The density of magnetic field lines indicates the strength of the magnetic field. More closely packed lines suggest a stronger magnetic field, while widely spaced lines suggest a weaker field in that region. The direction of the magnetic field is indicated by the orientation of the field lines.
Magnetic field lines show the direction of the magnetic field, the magnitude of the magnetic field (closeness of the lines), and the shape of the magnetic field around a magnet or current-carrying wire.
The magnetic field lines are closest together at the poles of a magnet. This is where the magnetic field is strongest and the lines are most concentrated.

No, the Earth's Magnetic Field acts just like a BAR Magnetic. It has a North and South Pole and its magnetic lines of its force field are more tightly 'compressed' near the Poles than at the Equator. See the image below for an example, or Google "magnetic field lines".

No, magnetic field lines close together indicate a stronger magnetic field, while magnetic field lines farther apart indicate a weaker magnetic field. The density of field lines represents the strength of the magnetic field in that region.

They are called the magnetic field lines.

Magnetic field lines don't cross.
The lines that map out the magnetic field around a magnet are called magnetic field lines. These lines indicate the direction of the magnetic field and its strength at different points around the magnet. Magnetic field lines are closest together where the magnetic field is strongest and they form closed loops that do not intersect.
No, charged particles from the solar wind are funneled towards the polar regions by the Earth's magnetic field. This results in the formation of the auroras near the poles rather than at the equator where the magnetic field lines are more parallel to the surface.
