Depending on their location and the quality and amount of bone you have in these areas, all implants can be placed in the same day. Similarly, depending on the same things, some of these implants can be "loaded" or have teeth placed on them the day of the surgery, while others must be buried in the bone, under the gum and allowed to heal for several months before they can be used to support teeth.
As many as you need. If the 3 are together you may not need 3 implants. We can do implant-supported bridges and partials as well. Best to talk over all the options with your dentist.
Few, but depending on your oral status. You need a dental exam to determine an implant treatment plan.
You can get as many as you want in the posterior area at once. The anterior area is different because of the aesthetics factor. 
Placing implants has many variables. If you have dense thick bone, placing 3 at the same time is fine if your surgeon recommends it
