Qt is just C++ with a little bit of sugar on top, so, yes, you can use Qt Creator as a generic C++ editor.

Yes, Qt has an IDE, named: Qt Creator.

1., Ok, you have an installed Ubuntu.
2., Use synaptic package manager and install these:
g++
libsm-dev
libxext-dev
libxcursor-dev
libxi-dev
make
libxrender-dev
libfreetype6-dev
libxfixes-dev
libxrandr-dev
libglib2.0-dev
libfontconfig1-dev
libx11-dev
libxft-dev
opengl: libgl-dev and libglu-dev (if using qtopengl)
phonon: gstreamer or libgstreamer

other packages:
libxinerama
libxt
libx11
libice
libpthread

3., download and install Qt SDK

4. Get these free books:
   C++ GUI Programming with Qt 1st ed.
   http://blog.hartwork.org/?p=156
   (This is the official Qt book!)

And another free Qt book:
http://freecomputerbooks.com/Introduction-to-Design-Patterns-in-Cpp-with-Qt4.html

If you are new to C++, read the Accelerated C++ book (this is a Qt community recommended introductory C++ book).

Jump into the Qt world :)

YES Definately. Unless you want to work with Python, from which you can also use Qt.

Important topics are of course the basic syntax, pointers, classes & objects and subclassing. You can't do without an understanding of such basic concepts.

YES! You need C++ knowledge for Qt. Because Qt is a C++ framework.
As Andre said: C++ is a must.

So you have to read some C++ books, for example (in this order):
Accelerated C++ (for beginners)
Thinking in C++ (IMHO the best C++ book for intermediate and advanced developers, and this book is free)
Effective C++ (this is only for advanced C++ developers)

Here you can find the most important topics for C++:
