It depends on your definition of the terms. If you are going to define the asteroid belt as being between Mars and Jupiter, then "yes" as far as our Solar System is concerned. Considering other stars which may have terrestrial planets, the answer is obviously "no"
In discussing the asteroid belt,though, asteroids can and do move well outside the limits of the Martian and Jovian orbits. Many come well inside Earth's orbit and at least one that I can think of (Icarus) travels well inside Mercury's orbit. So, to be technical, no, not all the terrestrial planets lie inside the asteroid belt.

True. The "terrestrial planets" are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. All four lie between the asteroid belt and the sun.

True. From the Wikipedia article on terrestrial planets, "Earth's solar system has four terrestrial planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars."

in basic terms positioned; The sunlight began to heat that gas & airborne dirt and dust cloud formerly if had thoroughly condensed into the planets. the warmth and image voltaic wind drove most of the gasses and vapors out of the section interior the present asteroid belt. The gas giants caught despite of the indoors equipment hydrogen, methane and ammonia that did not blow away. What volatiles the indoors planets have, they probably trapped in the previous. Even immediately Venus Earth and Mars are nevertheless dropping environment to image voltaic wind.

True. And on your last question, the dude who said the moon was 1/6 of earths diameter because it has 1/6 the gravity was wrong. The mathematical functions describing gravity, mass, density, and volume aren't all linear functions. Moon is rougly 1/4 the diameter, 1/6 the gravity, 1/81 the mass.
