here, we can observe from the properties browser that base of wall is constained to level 0 and top remains unconnected

ANSWER 2a:

According to my observation ,it is better to connect the walls to the levels rather than leaving them unconnected because on the condition that we want to change the height of wall we can simply change level height so that wall height changes along with it as a unit.If they are unconnected we have to change their height manually which is time consuming process and also a tough work for big projects.

ANSWER 2b:

It is convenient to use by height than by depth for modelling walls.
