Yes it is : a + b = b + a for all integers a and b.
In fact , if an operation is called addition you can bet that it is commutative.
It would be perverse to call an non-commutative operation addition.

Yes. The commutative property of addition (as well as the commutative property of multiplication) applies to all real numbers, and even to complex numbers. As an example (for integers): 5 + (-3) = (-3) + 5
The commutative property for any two numbers, X and Y, is X # Y = Y # X where # can stand for addition or multiplication. Whether the numbers are written as integers, rational fractions, irrationals or decimal numbers is totally irrelevant.
The set of integers is closed under addition so that if x and y are integers, then x + y is an integer.Addition of integers is commutative, that is x + y = y + xAddition of integers is associative, that is (x + y) + z = x + (y + z) and so, without ambiguity, either can be written as x + y + z.The same three rules apply to addition of rational numbers.
The commutative property of addition and the commutative property of multiplication.
Yes.
