Incorrect. If this were true, gravitometers would point at the apparent position of the sun in the sky instead of at the true position, which is ahead of the apparent position, as they actually do.

No, I don't have time to explain it, but you should read up on inertial frames. It all has to do with relativity - the relative frames w.r.t. each other., and gravity moves at the speed of light in each context.
