Yes, heavy metal is a subgroup of rock 'n roll. There are many, many subgroups of rock music: heavy metal, garage rock, punk rock, glam rock, psychedelic rock, classic rock, grunge, goth, emo, industrial... There are even subgroups of heavy metal, for example, hair metal, death metal and thrash metal. There are also subgroups of the other subgroups of rock. For example, punk pop, hardcore, proto-punk, New York punk and British punk are all subgroups of punk music.
No, they were not. The very, very first punk bands (what some people call "proto-punk") were the Stooges and the MC5 from Detroit. The first punk scene got started in New York City. The name "punk" was coined in New York City by writer Legs McNeil. He and a whole bunch of other artists and musicians were hanging out at the nightclubs CBGB's and Max Kansas City. These two clubs became the epicenter of the first punk scene. CBGB's and Max's were basically the petri dishes in which punk rock formed and grew. Although the very, very first punk bands were from Detroit, punk first became a musical movement in New York City. The Ramones were not the first punk band from New York City, either. The New York Dolls were playing together about 2 to 3 years or so before the Ramones formed. The New York Dolls would probably most accurately be called the first New York punk band. Some people call the Velvet Underground the first New York punk band. However, Lou Reed (singer/songwriter for the Velvet Underground) has consistently denied that his band was a punk band.
I would say it began in the late 1960s in New York with bands like The Velvet Underground and The Stooges.
