Yes, and it is one of the first things to rule out when every fixture goes weak at once. A gate valve that has been closed and reopened does not always return to full bore. A plumber checking pressure at the meter and at a fixture can tell fairly quickly where the restriction sits.

Working it once or twice a year keeps it from seizing, and that is the main reason old gate valves fail when they're finally needed. If it feels gritty, stiff or weeps at the stem afterwards, it is telling you something. A plumber can swap a tired gate valve for a quarter-turn ball valve without much disruption.

It can, since a new service run is often brought in at a tidier point with a modern valve close to the entry. The curb stop generally stays where the utility put it. If a replacement is on the cards, ask for the new inside valve to be somewhere you can actually reach.

It depends on the policy, the cause and how the damage happened, so the honest answer is that only your insurer can tell you. Sudden failures and slow long-running leaks are often treated very differently. Contact your insurance provider before assuming either way, and keep the plumber's paperwork and any photos.
