Yes. A quadratic function can have 0, 1, or 2 x-intercepts, and 0, 1, or 2 y-intercepts.

A function must pass the vertical line test. An equation with multiple y-intercepts must cross the y-axis multiple times. Therefore, a quadratic equation cannot have multiple y-intercepts. It can, as you said, have up to 2 x-intercepts, however.

Is it possible to have different quadratic equations with the same solution Why?

Yes it is possible. The solutions for a quadratic equation are the points where the function's graph touch the x-axis. There could be 2 places to that even if the graph looks different.

What does it mean when the graph of a quadratic function crosses the x axis twice?

When the graph of a quadratic crosses the x-axis twice it means that the quadratic has two real roots. If the graph touches the x-axis at one point the quadratic has 1 repeated root. If the graph does not touch nor cross the x-axis, then the quadratic has no real roots, but it does have 2 complex roots.
