Answer 1

Type M-x followed by "customize-mode" followed by "c-mode". Then use the built-in customization page to override the default "C Basic Offset" with your new value of "2". When you're done, be sure to select "Save for future sessions" at the top of the page.

Answer 2

Among the built-in indentation styles, "gnu" has an indentation width of 2 characters. You can choose an indentation style with c-set-style, bound to C-c..
