If someone can claim you as a dependent, then you do not file a tax form. Otherwise, you can call the IRS phone number
and find out for sure what you're suppose to do.

Most likely, NO. I believe the filing threshold for Single is $8450 and the lowest of any status is around $3000.
In fact a lot of people who actually have income don't have to file, but they do for refunds, Earned Income Credits,etc.

You do not have to. However, depending upon your circumstances, you may be eligible for tax credits, e.g., earned income tax credit. If so, it may be in your best interest to file - it's money coming to you.
Without having much more specific information, I cannot advise you as to whether you are eligible for credits or not. I'd recommend visiting the IRS website and searching for tax credits to determine if you may qualify.
Good luck!

No. You not only don't have to, you can't - you wouldn't have anything to put on the return.
