A static IP is one that stays the same throughout your contract, as opposed to changing everytime you reconnect to the net. You only need one.

And select 'No' for Legacy ADSL if you want the fastest speeds possible on your line.

They'll email you your username and password when you have signed-up. Remember to write them down if you need to have access to the net to read your saved emails.

If you have to ask about the 8IP addresses, the chances are you will have no use for them. If you realise you need them they are an email away.

8IP addresses is for when you want to use No NAT so every computer has an external IP address. This has slightly decreased security but added advantage if you run multiple servers that will want to use the same port.
