We was at 2nd of November. It was “summer”

While I don't know for sure about there being a path down, I know it's very, very steep. It's the steepest cable car in the world (though a small and short distance). I didn't see anyone walking down or back up, so I doubt it. Try going as early in the day as possible to somewhat reduce waiting time.

Sorry, no idea.

it's a good hour and a half into Haifa from Rosh Hanikra -- So it really depends where you are at the start of the day. If you hit Rosh Hanikra by 9:30, it's conceivable, just barely.

מסעדת הצוק,היא מסעדה כשרה עם נגישות לנכים. הצעתי היא להתקשר ולהזמין כדי שלא תגיעו בעת שהיא מלאה בין אם בסועדים ובין אם באוטובוסי מטיילים העוצרים לארוחות צהריים מתוכננות או בלתי מתוכננות,הדגישו כי מדובר ברכה וישמרו לכם המיקום הטוב ביותר . בהצלחה

The tour goes out from the Kibutz near by. Their number is +972-52-379-8610. You need to book in advance. The price for up to 3 is 290 NIS. After that each additional person is 85 NIS. Age range is 10-70 years old. Oddly enough, their website is only in Hebrew. Hope this helps out.

You dont have to, but if you chose to walk is about 1 hour each way.
