No, an attempted bunt can never be ruled an infield fly.
No, as long as it is a fair ball. Once the umpire signals the infield fly rule the batter is automatically out. However, if the ball is dropped and is ruled a foul ball, the umpire reverses his call and the batter continues his turn at bat. Nevertheless, the batter can not reach first from that batted ball. You will often find an umpire state "Infield fly, Batter is out if Fair". When the rule is in effect, the batter may not get on first base.
The infield fly rule was implemented in baseball in 1895.
No, runners cannot advance on the infield fly rule.
Any umpire may indicate the infield fly rule is in effect by yelling "Infield Fly" and extending his right hand above his head and pointing. However, the infield fly rule is in effect whether or not any umpire does this.
No, the infield fly rule in baseball prevents the defense from intentionally dropping a pop-up to force a double play, so runners cannot advance on an infield fly.
that is impossible because if you hit an infield fly then your out and the ball is in the in field not over the wall.
No, runners cannot advance on a play involving the infield fly rule.

An infield fly is a rule in baseball where a batter hits a pop-up in the infield with runners on first and second base or with the bases loaded and less than two outs. The key difference from a regular fly ball is that an infield fly is called to prevent the defense from intentionally dropping the ball to turn a double play.
No. The infield fly rule is only for fly balls within the infield. The reason for this is so that a defender cannot intentionally drop a fly ball in order to create a double or triple play. If a fly ball is dropped in foul territory, no runners may advance.
No, it is not considered a sacrifice unless the batter is advanced as a result of a bunt. Also, a fly ball that is caught is only considered a sacrifice if a runner tags and scores on the play. If a runner tags at 1B or 2B on the caught fly ball, and advances one base, it is not considered a sacrifice fly.
a bunt is where you hold your bat out in front of the plate holding the upper base and do not swing it
