Sorry, I mean to ask how the "Optimize the test" option relates to this. (Long
day.)

How does the port scan portion of Nessus affect the plugins used?
Are plugins only run against ports that are found to be open?
No, most plugins are also run against a default port.
Anyway, find_service only run on open ports, and service identification
is necessary for many plugins. Disabling all port scanners is
definitely a bad idea.
If port scanning is disabled, are all plugins run by default?
How does the "Safe checks" option relate to this?
There is no direct relationship in either case.
