In essence, yes. The sub will likely sound better posing a higher load to the amplifier due to decreased distortion and additional control, relatively speaking.
No. Multiple drivers, however, present other wiring options as do DVC (dual voice coil) single drivers. For example, say it's a DVC woofer rated at 4 Ohm per coil. It can be wired for 2 Ohm or 8 Ohm. 8 Ohm will draw far less current from the electrical system, won't need overly heavy wiring, an upgraded battery and/or alternator and all the other sh/t (almost literally) the mobile audio industry wants you to buy to screw up your car.

Ok, slowly but surely I'm learning....Reading a lot on Crutchfield as well.
