Never mind, I have changed a few of the answer as I misread things.

Uhh, early answers.
1) Set 40 (Correct me if i am wrong)
2) DT35
3) Before Coney Island / Punggol Port Road
4) CM
5) Increase the frequency from 4 mins to the possible 2 min frequency
6) The whole line except Gali Batu depot which is at-grade
7) Changi Point / Changi Village / Marina Barrage / Marina Bay
8) Nope, it was meant to be in operation only when CCL 4 and CCL 5 has open
9) Downtown Line
10) Yeap, it was meant to be a cross-platform interchange with DTL.
Proof :
11) 215/226
You guys compare the answer, I rushing through my homework =P

I'm surprised I'm the only one who answered "no" for the "Is the DTL completely underground?" question. I thought more people should've known.
