Can a unit that is partially on a hill shoot in two ranks or draw a line of sight across other units that are not themselves on a hill?

Only with those models that are on the hill. For example, if a unit consists of twenty models in two ranks of 10 and only 5 models in each rank are on the hill, only those 10 models can claim the benefits of shooting from a hill.

Can a unit on a hill draw a line of sight across and shoot over another unit on the same hill?

A unit that is closer to the top of a hill (i.e., the centre of the hill or the edge of the battlefield) can draw a line of sight across and shoot over one that is closer to the bottom. Units cannot draw a line of sight across or shoot over units that are closer to the top of a hill than they are.

Some chariots are equipped with large scale missile weapons such as bolt throwers. Who shoots such weapons; the crew, the beasts that draw the chariot, or the chariot itself?

Missile weapons mounted on chariots (or howdahs) are shot by the crew, using their Ballistic Skill.
