I'm taking the brakes / suspension off now....

Can I just drain the brake fluid via the bleeder pts, or do I need to blow them out using pressure?

Will fluid stay in the lines? How much fluid is in the whole system?

Yes

Depends on what you want to do. If you blow them out they won't drip all over the place.

No. See previous comment. They will drip and drain over time if left with fluid and not capped off somehow.

Don't have a clue. Not much though.
