If your node disqualified only on one satellite, you can keep the node running - all remained satellites will still pay for service.
The starting from scratch is only required when your node disqualified on all satellites.
In theory yes, however with the current utilization of the Storj DCS network, if 75% of node earnings come from only 2 satellites (Saltlake and Europe-North) and you get banned from these, then starting all over is the most likely option.

Yes, exactly. I got disqualified on Europe-North which was giving me 2/3 of the incomes. Saltlake is still working but remaining only with it (and us2 which is quite irrelevant) is not worth. Maybe I can start a second node in parallel and shutting down the first after a while.
If you keep it running, you can hide the DQd satellites (with storage2.trust.exclusions) from dashboard:
