Not really. You could have both an electric field and a magnetic field occupying the same space at the same time but they wouldn't 'make the definition' of electromagnetic until they began to fluxuate in phase at a harmonized frequency.
Yes, an electromagnetic field refers to the combination of electric and magnetic fields that are generated by electric charges and changing magnetic fields. This field propagates through space and carries electromagnetic energy.
An electromagnetic field is a physical field produced by electrically charged particles. It consists of electric fields and magnetic fields that interact with each other. When both electric and magnetic fields coexist, they form an electromagnetic field.
Not quite. An electromagnetic field is formed when electric and magnetic fields oscillate together perpendicularly to each other. So, a situation where both magnetic and electric fields are present and oscillating in a coordinated manner is what creates an electromagnetic field.
No, electromagnetic waves require the mutual generation of electric and magnetic fields. This reciprocal relationship allows the waves to propagate through space as self-sustaining oscillations. If only one field could generate the other but not vice versa, electromagnetic waves would not exist.
Magnetic fields exist around magnets, electric currents, and moving charged particles. They surround a magnet in three dimensions forming a magnetic field pattern with north and south poles.

The "lines" of latitude, longitude, reasoning, electric fields, and magnetic fields are imaginary.
Yes, an electric field can exist without a magnetic field. Electric fields are produced by electric charges, while magnetic fields are produced by moving electric charges. So, in situations where there are stationary charges or no current flow, only an electric field is present.

Gravitational fields are always attractive, meaning they only exist in the direction of pulling objects closer together. Magnetic fields can exist in any direction in space, while electric fields can exist in a specified direction due to the sign of the charge producing it.

Magnetic fields do, because there's no such thing as an isolated magnetic "pole", and a magnetic line always starts and ends at opposite poles of the same magnetized object. But electric fields don't. You can easily have a bundle of isolated positive charge over here and a bundle of isolated negative charge over there, whereupon the lines of the electric field start on one bundle and end on the other bundle. But electric field lines can also exist in closed loops, and they do that in radio waves, where the electromagnetic field propagates with an electric field component and a magnetic field component, and they both form closed loops.
Outside the dubious field of magnetic therapists, the terms 'positive' and 'negative' are not applied to magnetic polarities. Furthermore, we do not describe magnetic polarity as a 'charge'. However, magnetic poles and electric charges follow the same rule -i.e. like poles repel while unlike poles attract.
