Yeah you have to use a crossover cable.Straight through cables are to connect workstation to hub,switch or router.

Depends on how new your equipment is , the newer 6500 cards support auto-mdix and you can use either , otherwise it will be a Xover between switches .

You need to connect two switches with Crossover cable. Straight thu cable is used for connection with PC, PC to switch.
