 I'm not sure anyone dies in OoF, but if someone does, I'd bet on Hagrid

 Yes

 Yes.  Unless JKR pulls a surprise to make thigns worse for Harry and makes 
Lucius Malfoy MoM, by the end of the series it'll be Arthur Weasley though.

 Still a bit of a twit.  He'll be heroic by the end of the books, but he'll 
still be a goof i this one.
 
 > 9.  At the end of OoF, will Sirius have cleared his name?
 
 No, not until the end of book six or beginning of book 7, she needs the 
device of having Harry with the Dursley's until then.

Not directly.

 Marauder's Map, portkeys, floo powder

 Yes.  Keeper will be Ron, anything but seems like forced conflict and 
another several chapters of Ron is jealous of Harry, a very over used device 
by this point.

 Nope.

He's a contemporary of James, Arabella et al.

Not until book seven
