Yes, sleep apnea mostly gets worse if you sleep on your back so they suggest sleeping on your side.

I have sleep apnea that I treat with a BiPAP machine. The neurologist who manages it said that everybody has sleep apnea to some degree, and, as a matter of fact, with my BiPAP machine, I have fewer episodes than the average person.
Yes, although untreated sleep apnea is dangerous and you shouldn't rely on this if you suspect you have it. It may make it better but you may still be starving your tissues of oxygen.
