It's a great code repo. As a non-tech founder, it's still usable and doesn't take a lot to use to its full benefit.

Yes, it is the right solution, but you should also consider Bit Bucket, as they offer unlimited private code repositories, which might be less expensive than GitHub.

Most likely yes. GitHub is the de-facto standard for git hosting (public or private). There are very good competitors like BitBucket. But unless you can justify why you need to use a different provider, GitHub is a good choice because everyone you work with will already know how to use it.

How would you explain GitHub (or Git) to People that are not programmers or programmers that used SVN before?
Git is the latest and coolest software, and SVN is the outdated old one. When you tell SVN that you want to create a new branch of your code to have some fun, it creates a heavy weight dumb carbon copy for you. But Git is intelligent, it won't create a new copy for you instead it will only keep track of the things you're adding/removing/changing with respect to the original sources. I hope I made the point, for more let's have a telephone call some time :)NA
