In that situation it can be used as a credit card. As long as you got the funds in your bank account you can use your debit card like a credit card. I make lots of purchases online using my debit card and have not have issues doing so.
The only thing you might have a problem with is gas pumps and using a debit card for a rental car.

Yes, almost all credit card transactions online will accept Visa debit cards. (Though there are a few exceptions; for instance, when renting a car, they may accept it online for securing the reservation, but you'd have to have a real credit card to pick up the car.)
On the other hand, not all banks that issue debit cards will cover you for unauthorized purchases if the card is used online. This can be a very big deal! You need to check the details of your contract with the bank.

Yes, you can use it to buy things online. Be careful to make sure you are dealing with a reputable online company though. Whoever you give your debit card number to online has complete access to all the funds in your account. And remember that you don't necessarily have all the same rights of disputing a bogus charge as you would with a credit card purchase. I always use a credit card for online purchases just in case I have to dispute something.

Yes. As long as it's got the Visa logo on it, it'll work the same as a debit card.

Yes you can just use it as credit and don't give out a pin number.
