Yes, most fax machines require a telephone line as well as a connection to the phone network to send and receive faxes.

While there are some fax machines that can fax over an IP connection, this is still the standard method for connecting a fax machine.

Yes, you can. This is the standard method of sending and receiving faxes through a fax machine.

The phone line will need the appropriate telephone jack to fit into the fax machine - in most countries phones and faxes will hold the same phone jack, however there can be some challenges if using a fax machine from a foreign country.
