No, these 316 stainless-steel #6 flat-head screws resist rust and corrosion even in coastal or other damp environments.
Yes, but pair 316 stainless with aluminum carefully in wet conditions, since dissimilar metals can corrode faster together than either does alone.
Not in raw strength - 316 stainless is comparable to a similar carbon-steel screw, but it holds that strength far longer where zinc-plated screws would corrode.
A magnet is a quick check: 316 stainless steel is only weakly magnetic, while zinc-plated carbon-steel screws are strongly magnetic.
