Not very likely. Beta fish eat in small spurts and should be fed twice a day with very small amounts of food. Do not overfeed (leaving a lot of food so the fish can eat while you are gone) as their water can build to toxic levels of ammonia from the waste. Not very likely.

Yes. And many experienced betta breeders even recommend you skip a day once a week so they can digest everything in their stomachs and not get overstuffed. Their stomachs are quite small for their size and it's easy to overfeed them.

Oh sure, they can last very long without food. Maybe about three days to a week, but I wouldnt suggest you try it just to see. If your going on vacation somewhere, have someone feed it for you or take it with you. If you cant do that, feed it a lot the day before you leave then feed it as soon as you get home.

It will do it no good at all but it will survive. If the fish is to be left alone the biggest risk to the fish is the lack of water changes/quality if it is in a tiny container.

What kind of food can you feed your Betta if he will not eat the pellets or the flakes and lets them sink to the bottom?

There is betta food on the market, and if you should purchase this food the fish is not going to gulp this down right away. Bettas do not eat like we do, they go for days without eating it is best not even to try to feed a betta every day, one way to know if a betta is hungry or other fish is too watch them in there habitat, if the betta or your other fish are around the top and very active drop some food in, if they or it is just taking life easy do not feed them or it.
