Can a processor in a computer catch fire without the heatsink or does it prevent this automatically?

It depends on the BIOS setting. It's extremely unlikely to catch fire: normally the contact pins fuse into the socket and lose connectivity first. Most modern motherboards have heat sensors under the CPU which power-off the system as soon as it hits 70 degrees Centigrade.

Do you update BIOS with drivers OR firmware?

The BIOS for your computer is classed as firmware.

Drivers are Windows components used to interface between devices (hardware) and software. Drivers are downloaded and installed under the control of Windows. A faulty driver upgrade may cause the related device to not be usable or may cause Windows to crash. It is usually relatively easy to recover.

A BIOS upgrade should be downloaded only from the manufacturer of the motherboard of your computer. It will come with installation instructions. Take great care - a faulty BIOS change (e.g. one for another motherboard version) can possibly prevent the computer ever switching on again which is rather difficult to fix!
