Proportional means that different letters have different widths. The font used in typewriters (and in fonts like Courier New) have a fixed width, making it easier to align certain kinds of data. But it looks ugly.

well the fonts are measured in points
The point is being the usual unit of measurement for the fonts used in computers. Point is the smallest unit of measure, being a subdivision of the larger pica. It is commonly abbreviated as pt. All computer fonts are measured according to height and width of points.

Axiom: "A point has no magnitude".
There is not necessarily a relationship. Obviously the larger the point size, the less text can fit on a line in a particular width of a column. Even so, you will also have columns of a standard width using different point sizes, like having a large headline and regular text for a story. It is really down to the user to decide on what way to arrange point sizes and column widths.
No. A point, as a mathematical concept, has no dimension. No length, no width nor depth (depht, even).
