The amount of ships you can build depends on your research. However, increasing your fleet supply reduces your income by a certain percentage, up to 75% at the highest level. Thus its impossible for your income to be negative, but if you increase your fleet supply to fast your economy you'll be vulnerable if you need to quickly spend a lot of resources (I.e. your fleet got destroyed).

No, it only allows you to build more ships while reducing your economy. The strength of those ships are not affected by how large your fleet it.

Yes, maybe not to the targets you'd like, but it does try to disperse antimatter to the rest of your fleet. Unfortunately this sometimes means other Disciples, but just taking antimatter from your enemies is actually pretty good.

You want to take planets so you can have more money and territory, but it doesn't affect your ships except in very select cases. (You get a bonus if you're in your culture, and TEC Loyalists can get a bonus when fighting at their own planet. But that's about it.)

Well, provided you've been building up those Habitat Improvements at each of those newly colonized / conquered planets!

I was about to say...I know I've had negative income before...though, I don't remember how upkeep calculations are done when you have those negative sources of income...
