Yes, your brother-in-law is your relative by virtue of marrying your sister, of of you having married one of his siblings. But he is your relative by law, not because you have common ancestry. So that relationship can go away - if there is a divorce, for example.

Your brother's brother-in-law could be the brother of his wife or the husband of his sister.

You are not related to the brother of your brother's wife. But your brother's sister is probably also your sister. So herhusband is your brother-in-law, too.

No, a blood relative is someone who is descended from someone that you are also descended from. A brother-in-law is related to you in that way.

Technically no, as you do not share a common ancestor. However, if they are the father of cousins of your children they are a part of the family, even though distant.
