Your fastboot is disabled.
Update to stock 1.1 first.
You can download it from ZTE site.
See

Remove the battery and USB for a few seconds.
Put battery back.
Hold volume up and press power button.

No.
But if you don't have a micro-SD card you can't update to official Firefox OS 
1.1.

It seems you didn't change anything to your phone.
You should be able to reboot your phone normally.
