1. Who will be the most major character to die?

A Weasley.

Albus Dumbledore will die too, if not physically, at least 
symbolically. By the end of the novel, Harry will become stronger 
than him.

2. Who is the Half-Blood Prince? (If "The Old Lion Guy,"
describe more.)

Godric Gryffindor. Harry will meet him through a mental time travel.
The ring with the broken black stone / the stone wearing a bolt of 
lightning on the UK cover belongs to him. And Dumbledore could turn 
out to be his descendent.


3. What is Lily's big secret? (This question will be eliminated
and full credit given to everyone if no big secret is revealed.)

She was a descendent of Slytherin.
She dated Remus Lupin.

4. Who will be the new DADA teacher?

A new character. But like Lockhart and the fake Moody, he will turn 
out to be an impostor.

5. With whom will Harry have a romantic relationship?

Just before the story reaches its most critical point, Hermione will 
tell him she loves him, and he will feel very surprised because he 
didn't expect it. However, he won't end up with her. He will tell 
her to go with Ron.

6. Who will be the new Minister of Magic?

At the beginning, Fudge. Then he'll die or will be sacked, and Madam 
Bones will take the charge.

7. What is that bowl-thing on the green U.S. HBP cover?

Something like a "universal Pensieve". It contains Hogwarts' or the 
Wizarding World's memories.

First option: yes, but he will have so many problems with Snape that 
he will have to leave the class.
Second option: No
In both cases, Hermione will become his substitute teacher.

Yes. Severus Snape is already stocking spare cauldrons.

10. How many OWLs did Harry get?

At least 9
