1. The sauce should dress the pasta as dressing in a salad.
Therefore, the answer is less than you think.

My favorite sauce is simply butter and herbs.

9. Don't go to Italy then. You won't get much sauce but what you get will be amazing.
They eat smaller portions of pasta and even smaller portions of sauce. Of course it is the first course. You will have your insalata and your main dish and your contorni (sides). god, I wish I were back there right about now...

6. Depends on the sauce.
Depends on whether you have bread in the house so that you may sop up the sauce left after you've consumed the pasta. You DID remember to buy bread this time, didn't you?;)
