64MB really isnt enough to run LAMP properly. For a smoother run, I advice to at least double or triple the amount of available RAM. Editing a photo with ImageCache from 1600x1200 costs you over 32MB already!
64MB is a little bit small for Drupal. But it depends on how many modules you want to enable, and what they are.
For example, if you want to use ImageCache module, and at the same time, you have a image with size more than 4MB uploaded, then it would be failed as at this time, 128MB will be the least for processing. And considering some other process need to consume memory, such as OS, apache, etc, 256MB is really recommended for Drupal.

to start yes. As your site grows and gets more users you may need to progress forward with reference to hardware.

It depends on what you want to do, if you're going to use heavy images, perhaps not. Otherwise sure. I manage more or less ok with 32MB.
