I didn't think you could run the az bash commands in PowerShell but you CAN. I have just run exact command from the question in Powershell and it worked...…………..

PS Azure:\> az vm create --resource-group RG1 --name VM1 --image UbuntuLTS --generate-ssh-keys
SSH key files '/home/****/.ssh/id_rsa' and '/home/****/.ssh/id_rsa.pub' have been generated under ~/.ssh to allow SSH access to the VM. If using machines without permanent storage, back upyour keys to a safe location.

Tested in the Azure cloud shell, a virtual machine was created.

NO.
'az vm create' is not a powershell command.
new-azvm is correct powershell command

The answer is Yes

I tried to run the command in cloud shell and with "Powershell" selected. If you have correct Resource Group created, the VM can be created. The best way is feel it is to execute the script rather than reading those document (in theory!)

if there are multiple subscriptions, we need to use
az account set --subscription "Subscription1"
Not sure what we are expected to assume in this question

I tried and from cloud shell (Powershell) you can use az commands.

Yes. This command works in cloud shell Powershell. I just ran it in the portal and created the resources.

I tested in Azure env. so it works like a charm. The answer is YES.

I would say no as someone mention it doesn't guarantee that the subscription is the one that you want, so i guess they expect that we have to put also in the command line the name of the subscription, other else you can't have sure

I can confirm 100% that CLI commands will work in Azure Cloud Shell-Powershell. Just tested it and this is what it says when you open CloudShell-Powershell https://imgur.com/a/o1XGzHP
