This depends on the LaTeX class you use -- from memory, the class
"report" dedicates one page to the title page, and centers the title
vertically (or somewhat close.)

Just use \pagebreak in your Org file.

#+LaTeX: \renewcommand{\baselinestretch}{1.5}

before the part you want to modify, and

#+LaTeX: \renewcommand{\baselinestretch}{1}

to go back to a normal interline after this part.

No.

Yes - customize `org-export-latex-classes' to your needs, adding 
\documentclass[11pt]{article} where it makes sense.

It's not currently possible, but we can imagine a helper function for
that.  For now I would suggest: just store the empty table in a register:
select the table, `C-x r s', then `C-x r i' when you want to insert the
empty table again.
