In the dark old days it used to be a superscript after the quote and then a reference down in the footer of the page. These days it's just about anything.

You should talk to your teacher/lecturer about the correct method they prefer for references. This will maximize your potential for marks.

Without that I would go for the first method as the second is somewhat meaningless. Also I would give an explanation for the terminology either at the very bottom of your cover page or in the bibliography.

This is a question of style best asked of your teacher, otherwise you are just guessing. Both ways are acceptable to most, but using p. is obviously the clearest, but vary your citation form. Example: "On page 35, (author) tells us...." or "Later in the book (p. 110), we learn..."

"I'm not going!" (35).
this is done if you have already introduced the author, but if not it is
"I'm not going!" ( author's name, 35).
