Of course. I went to school and received my bachelor's degree. I didn't get an associate's at all.
General rule of thumb is that you go to a college or university for a bachelor's. You get an associate's from a community college or a technical school. If you can't tell by the name of the institution, try looking for the length of the program. A bachelor's usually takes 4+ years. You can get an associate's degree in just a year or two.

Yes. Associate Degrees are usually intended for people to get a degree quickly and/or to get certain basic classes in first before moving on to another college where the classes would have been more expensive

Yes. Two year colleges (JUCO's) had to show a way of "graduating" students. So, they created the Associates Degree. Of course, you already know that you don't have to attend a JUCO to go to a 4 year college.
Mostly, Associate Degrees are considered "Technical Degrees". In other words, you know just enough to do your job.

Absolutely, all you have to do is get into a four-year university! I did that and so did most of my friends.
