Yes - the Z80 card does CP/M.  It's almost useless, and you'd need the
software to activate it.

It's either an RGB card or an 80-column text card.  Probably the latter.

Depends - most likely it will effect your reset action.  One setting
should dump you into the system monitor (it's basically acting like a
debug break), and the other should behave naturally.  That's what I'd
bet, anyhow.
