Yes. The former is the wire protocol version, e.g. request/response 
serialization/deserialization. The latter is for the query language itself, 
e.g. syntax of the SELECT statement.

Yes, starting with Cassandra 1.2 all versions support CQL3. In general, when 
someone is talking about CQL, they refer to CQL3.

Yes, Cassandra 2.0.x uses binary (also called native) protocol v2 while 
Cassandra 2.1.x - v3. All versions of Cassandra support previous versions of 
the native protocol.
