Answer 2

It truly depends on the tea itself. Green tea simply means that the tea has not been allowed to oxidize while drying. Usually a high quality tea will be green dried and as a liquid. Lower quality often are a brownish type of leaf with a yellowed liquid.
Of course there are exceptions like the white monkey and hojicha teas through the link

Answer 3

There is a wide variety of "green" teas which depends on the variety, and how it is processed - from a dark almost black colour, to an almost white faint green look. When the leaves are picked determines some of the coloring, how it it dried - cured etc. and what country, what soil, what kind of plant. The off-the-shelf stuff is a medium green and will have a slight greenish tinge in your cup, but this is only an "average" as there are hundreds of varieties and packaging processes as well.
