The relations depend on what measures. The sample mean is an unbiased estimate for the population mean, with maximum likelihood. The sample maximum is a lower bound for the population maximum.
A parameter is a numerical measurement of a population; a statistic is a numerical measurement of a sample.
A parameter is a number describing something about a whole population. eg population mean or mode. A statistic is something that describes a sample (eg sample mean)and is used as an estimator for a population parameter. (because samples should represent populations!)

The characteristic or value of a population that is under consideration is called a parameter. It represents a specific aspect of the entire population and is often unknown and estimated using sample data. Parameters can include means, proportions, variances, and other measures that describe the population.
Yes.
A point estimate is a single value (statistic) used to estimate a population value (parameter)true apex
Population Parameter
A point estimate is a single value used to estimate a population parameter, such as the sample mean used to estimate the population mean. Confidence intervals can also be used to provide a range within which the population parameter is likely to lie.
