You can't tackle a player that doesn't have the ball in his possession. You can block any player you want -- you can even knock someone over with a pancake block -- but grabbing onto a player who doesn't have the ball and taking him to the ground would constitute holding.
No. If the defensive back hits a receiver before the ball is thrown it is Pass Interference (if the ball was already in the air) or Defensive Holding (if the ball hasn't been thrown yet). That said, the defensive back has as much right to the ball as the receiver, so if he is making a play on the ball the contact may be legal.
Provided they have the ball, you can tackle them wherever you like.

How do i lean to takl?
When I played football, our coach taught us that we always watch the runner's (or qb's) hips, because that gives away what direction he'll run. Don't look at his legs, it will confuse you; look at the hips. Then you lean in that direction to make your tackle. So, you watch the runner's hips and lean that direction to tackle him.
