normally but not always. Like the 4 cylinder echotech engine that saturn and gm use it takes 5 quarts. But the 6 cylinder engine only takes 4.5 quarts. There are a few other exceptions out there but in most cases the larger the engine the more oil it takes.

Generally yes, but this will depend on which engines you are talking about. A turbocharged 4 will take as much or more oil than a small naturally asperated 6. If the 4 has an oil cooler and the 6 doesn't, the 4 will take more oil.

most 6 cylinders no but it depends on number of valves and compression ratio

Yes, because the bigger the engine, the more oil it needs to do its job.

you can answer this question yourself.
Would it take more oil to cover four items than six items?
Or would four sponges absorb more water than six sponges?
Or would it take more milk to fill four glasses than six glasses?
What do you think the answer is?
