Can you move a project from one team to another?

Once you're on the Teams page, hover over the name of the team you'd like to move. Click the '…' to trigger a dropdown menu, then select 'Move Projects Between Teams'. A popup will prompt you to select the project(s) you'd like to move.

You can move a project collection from one deployment of Azure DevOps Server to another.

What is team project collection?

Each TFS Server can have one or more Team Project Collections. In turn, a Team Project Collection contains one or more Team Projects. A Team Project Collection is the basic unit of recovery for TFS. From a backup and restore perspective, a Team Project Collection is similar to a SharePoint Site Collection.

No not really simple, you can split a collection and creata a new collection with the team projects you move in it, but you cannot out-of-the-box merge a team project into an existing collection.

What you can do is to use the TFS integration platform http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/eb77e739-c98c-4e36-9ead-fa115b27fefe or http://tfsintegration.codeplex.com to migrate your team project over to the new collection. This is however a DataMigration that doesnt keep or even move all data, but it will move Source Code & Workitems. Moving a team project site (if needed) , including documents can be done by using the STSADM Export and Import commands, please refer to http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc288191%28v=office.12%29.aspx for more info about moving SharePoint sites
