Answer 1

Would have been quicker for you to test it yourself, than to post the question:
SQL> ed
Wrote file afiedt.buf
  1  BEGIN
  2     FOR REC IN 1..10
  3     LOOP
  4             EXIT WHEN REC =5;
  5             /*
  6             business logic
  7             */
  8                  dbms_output.put_line('Processing: '||rec);
  9     END LOOP;
10* END;
11  /
Processing: 1
Processing: 2
Processing: 3
Processing: 4
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
