Answers
A:
Tie directly to any line work the best
A:
I tie direct using a Palomar knot with a spot of superglue. Havent' had a problem yetA:
The advantage of this snap is that there is no swivel. A swivel has an adverse affect on lure action, and the use of this snap is the closest you can get to tieing directly to the lure.A:
Yes, unless you are using a lure that will cause line twist as some spinner baits do. In that case use a barrel swivel about 12" or more ahead of it to avoid affecting the action of the lure.A:
Yes, with ease.

#5 = 85lbs
#6 = 150lbs

A:
I have used #1, 2, and 3 for various applications. The 1 is the smallest, and except for lightweight lures in cold water, it's not needed and is kind of hard to use if you've got big hands. All of them work well.A:
#1A:
size 0 or 1A:
The lowest the number, the smallest
A:
do a google search for "fishing sizing chart" and there's some resources to help you. The higher the number, the smaller the size.

I think #01 is the smallest available size online at BPS. I would have to check the product description again.Compare them by sight.
There are several brands, several makers of these clips.
I always have a pack of small, black ones ( which I believe are #01 size )
Set the drag on your reel properly, you should have no problems.
The different size clips are lb. test rated, but I've forgotten what they are.
I like tying the Palomar knot. It is really strong.
Highly recommended item. Allows fast changing of different lures and color baits.
Makes a days fishing go smoother. Less time retying. More productive time fishing.
Also, wastes less line.
On minnow and crank lures the action is unhindered. Better presentation.
Good luck.
