Answer 1

Depends on what your goals are. These two products are VERY different and have VERY different purposes. If you're a web developer, then you should look at SharePoint. We recently released SharePoint 2010 which offers some AMAZING developer tools in VS2010 compared to previous versions. If, instead, you're more of a middleware type of person, then BizTalk might be your way to go. BizTalk makes use of WF and WCF extensively, so those are also good skills to know before getting in.
