No.

Sunlight would still create phases as usual depending on where it is during its orbit But we would get Glimpsed of the far side of the Moon as it Spins Great for Crater spotting as they have normally been hid Indeed

Absolutely not.

no, but we would get to see all of its surface from Earth over a period of time

not at all. But we would not see that nice man in the moon all the time like we do now.

Not really. If it were to rotate on its axis twice as fast, it would still have phases, but the parts of the moon visible would change. We'd be able to see the far side half the time.

Being part of the Earth - moon orbiting system, yes there would be a change in behavior of both moon and Earth.

Of course not. The Moon's phases are caused entirely by what part of the Moon is in shadow, and that is entirely about the angle between it, us, and the Sun. It has nothing to do with how fast it rotates.

Nope.

None. The phases would occur as always. But, we'd see more than just a single side of the moon over time...

no, the phases are due to part of the light from the sun being blanked by the earth. Rate of rotation will not change that.

yes, our tides would change and the moon would be more prominent
