Yes. In fact the proofs that quantum error correction works as long as you're below a certain error rate (so-called "threshold theorems" are very, very similar to the same proofs that error correction works in classical computers.

Yes, the same as classical error correction but distinct from classical fault tolerance. It’s fascinating (to me) how these are different!
