Q1: Are the sentences all grammatical?
What about #4? Can we use #4?
Q2: What other words can be put in the blank in #5?
Q3: What is the meaning of 'boys' in #2? Do 'boys' mean 'sons'?

1 answer

All the sentences are fine. You'd use #4 if you were answering a question about a group of boys that had already been pointed out to you and they are close to you. In #5, you could use "those boys" if answering a question about a group of boys that was farther away from you, but still within sight.
