Since the earth is a sphere (ball), you can reach any place on earth by traveling in either direction from any other place. To reach any west longitude from the Prime Meridian, heading west is the shorter way. To reach any east longitude from the Prime Meridian, heading east is the shorter way.
The prime meridian is a line at 0 degrees longitude.
Assuming that "all the way west of the Prime Meridian" would be on the opposite side of the globe from the prime meridian, or at 180o, "halfway west of the Prime Meridian" would be the 90oW meridian.
Technically Yes. Concerning longitude, all of the meridians come together at the poles, so each pole has every longitude, but by convention 0 degrees longitude is used to refer to the north or south poles. So for example, the North pole is typically referred to as at 90°N 0° W and likewise the South pole as 90°S 0° W.With respect to latitude, the north pole is located at 90 degrees north latitude, and the south pole at 90 degrees south latitude.

No. 90 degrees longitude is not a major line of longitude. Only 0 and 180 degrees longitude, which are the Greenwich Meridian and the International Date Line respectively, are major lines of longitude.
