Newly hatched babies are 15-20 inches long. You mean, newly born? Boas, unlike pythons, give live birth. The eggs hatch inside the mother. Also it depends on the boa. A green anaconda baby is about 2ft., while a Kenyan sand boa baby is about 4-6 inches. Baby red tail boas are on average about a foot.

Yes. Sand boas are vertebrates as are all snakes.
Yes they are! If you live in a apartment or a small space, a Kenyan sand boa (if you have a really small space, then get a male) is an excellent choice. They are fairly not too expensive (counts on the morph and sometimes even gender) and are fairly docile snakes, but hog noses are great choices too for a small living space.
I wouldn't recommend them - since they spend the vast majority of their lives in burrows. Having said that - they are (apparently) one of the more docile snake species.
They don't, they live in tropical habitats. Some species of boa live in deserts, such as sand boas.
I believe the smallest boa is the Kenyan Sand Boa (males average 1-1.5ft.) and the largest boa is the Green Anaconda (25ft. set the record). These are the biggest not the longest snakes (longest is the Reticulated python).
I say that some types of birds eat Sand Boas
yes apparently any kind of boa chokes and their all related to an anacondaEDIT: No, not in the stereotypical sense. Sand boas (I imagine you are referring to the Kenyan sand boa) max out around 2 ft. and don't have the stereotypical widened jaw. My sand boa is a 3 year old male that just reached 1 1/2 ft.
