the "traditional" sense of the word hacking is modifying how a program works. it has nothing to do with getting into someone's account (that's cracking). for some reason mainstream has these two words mixed up (and has had, since before you were born)
that being said, "i practiced[sic] coding using Scratch" doesn't really qualify a hacker. hacking is more like "i made a steam game work so it doesn't need steam anymore" - modifying how an existing program works.
Maybe.
A hacker is "a person who uses computers to gain unauthorized access to data", according to google.

Pretty sure you're not. Not really. Hackers are, afaik, that know how to mod programs or scripts that make doing things easier or at least like, more efficient or something. Hackers are people pretty proficient in scripting so by your own admission, you're not a hacker. Maybe aspiring but I wouldn't go telling everyone at your HS that you are. You do know more than the average layman though. Congrats.

Yes. Hacking is about manipulating code, not always about defeating security.
No that's not hacking.
No it's really edgy to call yourself one.
