Racking just refers to the action of turning the knob on the rail to set focus.

Not much you can do about minimum focus distance. That is determined by the focal length of the lens and the minimum distance you can physically get the lens to the film plane.

Yes, a longer lens will give you closer focus.

Backwards. Shorter focal length gives closer focus with the same bellows extension.
