Yes, but you have to be careful when you do them, because if you do them before your bench presses you'd have tired your muscles out a bit and you'd find that you wouldn't be pushing as much as you thought you could.

Yet, if you did them after, you would find that you'd really making them work, which is a good thing.

So yes, doing push-ups can help you in the long run with your bench press

Yes, push-ups and bench presses use the same muscle groups.
