Where did Abraham and his relatives settle from where had they come and why did they leave?
Abraham (18th century BCE) was born in Ur (Mesopotamia; now Iraq), where he first repudiated idolatry. He then sojourned in Harran (Syria) for several years, and then, at God's command, lived most of his life in Canaan (Israel).
It was in Canaan that Abraham lived most of his life, made a covenant with God (Genesis ch.15), and raised a family to be the center of carrying on his traditions (Genesis 18:19).
Abraham's family carried on his teachings voluntarily. Judaism as a binding, permanent entity, was set forth between God and the Israelite nation descended from Abraham, Isaac and Jacob at Mount Sinai in the time of Moses (Exodus ch.19, ch.24, and 34:27).All of the above places are in the ancient Fertile Crescent.

What tribe from Noah's sons did Abraham come from?
If we follow the genealogical line far enough, the son of Noah was Jesus Christ. Noah's three recorded sons in the first instance were Shem, Ham and Japheth. From these three the three main 'people groups' on the planet are descended post flood. This is recorded in Genesis 10.
How is God's covenant with Noah different from his covenant with Abraham?
The story of Noah is a creation story and its purpose was to help explain where we came from and why things are the way they are. In this story, God made a great flood that covered the whole earth but, after the flood subsided, made a covenant with Noah that he would never again send a flood to destroy humanity. The sign of his covenant was the rainbow.The story of Abraham, in the form we have today, was a story of the Hebrew people. Its purpose was to help explain where the people came from and why they lived in the land of Israel. The covenant had two important parts: to make Abraham the father of many nations and to make him the father of a great nation. As an Israelite legend, this meant that the great nation would be Israel. Thus the Israelites learnt that they were descended from a great leader who had come from Ur of the Chaldees to live in the Promised Land, but not yet to settle and own it to the exclusion of others. The sign of God's covenant would be the circumcision of all Abraham's male descendants.
Did God tell Abraham to listen to his wife?
Yes, when Sarah saw Ishmael teasing Isaac, she asked Abraham to send Ishmael and his mother, Hagar, away. At first, Abraham did not want to, but God spoke to him, telling him to listen to Sarah's voice. This was the beginning of a fulfillment of a prophecy. Isaac would be the one through whom God's purpose would be fulfilled. The one through whom Messiah would come (Genesis 21:8-13)(Genesis 17:15-21/Genesis 25:5-9) who would provide a hope for ALL mankind, and benefit any who chose to accept it (Genesis 12:3/Galatians 3:14).
