A:
Yes. The leading zero will make the number interpreted as octal number; without it would be interpreted as decimal number.
var_dump(0700); // int(448)
var_dump(700); // int(700)

But in bash environment I always use `chmod 777`,without 0,and it seems to be working.

chmod command in bash is smart enough to know it's octal.

Well technically it is not needed. It just makes it a hell of a lot easier to read.
