Electromagnetic waves.
No. Light is an example of an electromagnetic wave, which can travel through a vacuum. Mechanical waves must travel through a medium, and cannot travel through a vacuum.
Yes. Electromagnetic waves (including light as a special case) are, in fact, the only type of wave which will travel through a vacuum.
If there's matter then its not a vacuum. But an EM wave can transverse either.
Since an earthquake or seismic wave is a pressure or force wave (like sound waves), it requires a material in which to propagate. So, no earthquake waves can travel through a vacuum.

Yes, any electromagnetic wave can travel through a vacuum.

Any wave that requires a physical medium. Audio (sound pressure) waves, water waves, and "amber waves of grain" are all examples of waves that cannot travel through the vacuum of space.
Since sound is a mechanical wave (it needs a substance to travel through) it cannot travel through a vacuum.
Any wave that depends on a physical medium, such as a water wave or a sound wave.
Sound is a mechanical wave and must travel through a medium, such as air, water, and solids. Sound waves cannot travel through a vacuum.
