It is the y intercept.
Precisely midway. That is to say, at their mean (average).
y = x +1 is the equation of a straight line and so has no vertex.
It depends on the vertex of what!
when the function is in vertex form: y = a(x - h)2 + k, the point (h, k) is the vertex.
It is the y intercept.
yes, any point " on the y-axis" has its x co-ordinate as zero.
Precisely midway. That is to say, at their mean (average).

To find the value of a in a parabola opening up or down subtract the y-value of the parabola at the vertex from the y-value of the point on the parabola that is one unit to the right of the vertex.
when the function is in vertex form: y = a(x - h)2 + k, the point (h, k) is the vertex.
The given equation is y = x - 4x + 2 which can be written as y = -3x + 2 This is an equation of a straight line. Therefore it has no vertex and so cannot be written in vertex form.
Opening up, the vertex is a minimum.
The vertex is at (-1,0).
