A sequence is a set of numbers, which are identified by their position in the set. That is to say, there is a function mapping the counting numbers {1, 2, 3, ... } to the set. The counting numbers may include 0. There may or may not be a rule governing the numbers. For example, a random sequence, by definition, should have no rule.
Anything you like. You specify whatever rule you like and the resulting set of numbers is the sequence based on that rule.

It is an ordered set of elements. These elements may or may not be numbers, there may or may not be a defining rule - for example a sequence of random numbers.
There are infinitely many cubic functions that can be the rule for the above set of numbers. The simplest, though, is the linear rule: Un = 8n - 1 for n = 1, 2, 3, ...

The rule method is used to describe any set of numbers, so put any sequence of numbers in brackets and there you go.

The GCF of a set of numbers is a positive integer which divides each of the numbers evenly.

-1, 1 is a set of numbers that is closed under division. The rule is if you divide among you end up with a quotient that is in the set. 1/-1 or -1/1 = -1 (-1 is in the set)
You arrange all of the numbers in a given set from least to greatest. The median number is the one in the middle. If there is an even number in the set, the median is the average of the two middle numbers.
A sequence is an ordered set of numbers. There may be a rule governing the sequence such that, if you know the numbers in the sequence up to a particular point, the rule will allow you to deduce the value of the next number in the sequence. That rule - if it exists - is the sequential pattern.
The set of rational numbers includes all whole numbers, so SOME rational numbers will also be whole number. But not all rational numbers are whole numbers. So, as a rule, no, rational numbers are not whole numbers.
