I think this because he was technically a Jedi once, and he IS the last of Luke's Jedi. Also, Rey is not an official Jedi yet - just a Force-sensitive. As for Luke, eeehh... the only way I could say it is him is because the last section in Rey's biography on Wookieepedia is called "The last Jedi," but that is just the title of a section - before the movie title was even announced.

I don't really know.

It COULD imply "plural" Jedi, I kind of doubt it though.

Kylo won't be redeemed, they sealed his fate with the death of Han. It's established in the Star Wars series that there is no such thing as being past the point of redemption or forgiveness; whether it be for a cold-blooded smuggler, a cunning gambler, or a murderous dark lord. Yes, but I still think them having Kylo kill as signficant of a character as Han Solo was their way of sealing him as beyond redemption. You don't just kill Han Solo and then be all "oh look, he's good again and everyone likes him yay"

Han Solo is undeniably one of the most iconic film characters of all time, but I don't think Johnson and Trevorrow would let that have any affect on their storytelling. "Everyone loves Han Solo, therefore we can never have Kylo Ren become a good guy ever again." doesn't seem like the line of thinking Lucasfilm follows.
