Insurance number is a requirement for application in a job so that the employee and the employer will be protected from any costs arising from accidents or death of the former.

They usually do but it is more important really that they have the NI number when you START working with them to allocate with your pay.
If they say it's for eligibility to work, they will need to see a passport with associated work permits etc because, strangely, having an NI number does not prove your right to work in the UK on its own.

Yes. It is illegal to work without one so they are entitled to ask at any stage.
If you are in the process of getting one, then say so and they might take official notification of your application in lieu.
