It would be better if you used US spelling. But it shouldn't make a huge difference in your score, since the essay is graded holistically. So don't worry about it :) just do your best.

Yes, they will mark you down if you spell it incorrectly, or in other words, non-US spelling.

it will be great if you follow the U.S. way, but I don't think it is a big problem

I don't think it is very common for words like that to be in the SAT tests.

Yes, if you're taking it in the US.
