Answer 1

yes, you can have internet without cable.

Answer 2

You CANNOT have cable Internet without cable TV.

Cable Internet is an add on to cable TV.  

Cable Internet comes in on a standard TV channel, but it is not in a usable format for a TV set so TV's ignore that channel. Thus the need for cable TV service.

That said some cable systems will make you an Internet only deal. They will trap out all but the cable Internet channel. So it may seem like you are getting Internet only.

The only way to know is to ask the cable company what they can offer you.  

You may find it cheaper to get the very basic cable service with cable Internet.  

Only the cable system can answer your question.
