Does every sentence with if possible have to end with a question mark?
No, not every sentence with "if" has to end with a question mark. The use of a question mark at the end of a sentence depends on whether the sentence is asking a question or stating a fact.
Do you have a full stop after a piece of punctuation?
It depends on the type of punctuation and whether it's at the end of a sentence.
A full stop isn't required after question marks or exclamation points as they already contain a full stop.
What do you put at the end of a imperative sentence?
At the end of an imperative sentence you put a period, because it is a command, direction, or request.

Does 'the house is on fire' need exclamation mark?
Yes it should have an exclamation mark.
This assumes that the event is remarkable. If the statement is merely an observation of the status during a broader scenario, including burning of one or more houses, such as for training or experimentation, then it might not qualify as an exclamation.
For example, "The firefighter instructors did a final safety check five minutes ago then triggered the ignition sources. Four minutes later, the house is on fire."
When is a question not a question?
It's when it's asking you a question but doesn't have a question mark.
Example:
Write a complete paragraph on how Mary and Smith can be friends.
Write this down, please.
The "Hope you are enjoying summer" is just a statement. I would say that they wrote to be polite.
Do you put both a period and the question mark with sentences ending in inc?
Yep!
i.e...
"So you work at Comcast inc.?" I don't think Comcast is an incorporation, but oh well. Just an example.
So, yes, you do use a period and question mark when ending a questionous sentence with inc.
Does a Question mark come before an explanation point?
The explanation point is always before the question mark.
Are you supposed to put four period if your ending a sentence in a quote but not the quote itself?
This is only used when you miss part of a quote out. So, if you quote the first part of a quote, miss out the middle, and then quote the end part, you should use the three or four periods to represent the missing text.
