Yes.

No since from a security point of view you don't want regular users to
write anything there. Think of that tmp directory as being for the
root user or anyone in the sudoer group to write temporary stuff. By
default, testing your custom Sage script with

sage -t /path/to/my/script.sage

using a system-wide Sage installation would result in a permission
error. If you want to test your own Sage script, you can install Sage
under your own home directory or test the script as root or using
sudo.

I don't understand this question.
