Yes, that's what a geometric sequence is about.
You mean what IS a geometric sequence? It's when the ratio of the terms is constant, meaning: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16... The ratio of one term to the term directly following it is always 1:2, or .5. So like, instead of an arithmetic sequence, where you're adding a specific amount each time, in a geometric sequence, you're multiplying by that term.
The terms are: 4, 8 and 16
un = u0*rn for n = 1,2,3, ... where r is the constant multiple.
FALSE (Apex)
No, they do not. If the first term is negative, they always decrease.

Yes, that's what a geometric sequence is about.
A descending geometric sequence is a sequence in which the ratio between successive terms is a positive constant which is less than 1.
A static sequence: for example a geometric sequence with common ratio = 1.

Ratio
It is 4374
The difference between succeeding terms in a sequence is called the common difference in an arithmetic sequence, and the common ratio in a geometric sequence.
The terms are: 4, 8 and 16
un = u0*rn for n = 1,2,3, ... where r is the constant multiple.
