Yes
I had to look it up
Density is a state function because it doesn't matter how a compound came to a specific density, only that it is at it.
An example of what's not a state function is work. Work is W = FD
D is distance, not displacement. How much work you do depends on the route you take to complete it.

No. Density is a point function. It depends upon the end points and not on the path followed.
You should read some basics in thermodynamic books. TD by Zemansky is an excellent resource.
