Your Answer for Question 1:
C processor scopes out source code for  any line begining with a pound sign(#).It is used by compiler to trasnform source code before compilation.
It used with C code and takes a text file, that is unstructured stream of ASCII characters with some chars indicating the end of a line of text, or unicode.and makes
sequences of preprocessing tokens corresponding  to syntatic tokens used by C compiler.These tokens are in five major catagories:identifiers,preprocessing numbers,string literals,punctuations,and others.
Preprocessor communictes a stream of binary tokens directly to compiler's parse.It also can produce textual output too.
It would be the first step right before compilation.

Your Answer for Question 2:
That would be a tribble waste of computing resources,since
a single change to one line of one procedure requires compiling and assembling the whole program.
It slows down the programming and debugging for programmer,since  with each change he would be compiling 
and assembling even the standard library routines that almost never change.
