1. Yes, simply as that, but people like to give a special name to it
thats it
2. Yes, more chromatin are form, when they form chromosome or chromatid, they are coiled with each other tightly, then you can stain it to observe it ( But it is not invisible, it is just hard to see)

Basically DNA will coiled on histone protein.
Before mitosis or meiosis, it further coiled up (supercoiling) so that it is visible under microscope. Just imagine you are coiling a piece of threat again, again and again.
Cell never rest.
DNA replicate at the Synthesis phase of cell cycle. Whether the DNA is visible, depend on how you observe it.
