Answer 1

Depends on how your account was set up. If it's Microsoft Account based (LiveID/Outlook.com/Hotmail), then you need to navigate to the account level users hub first.

https://{{account}}.visualstudio.com/_admin/_users

If your account is Azure Active Directory backed, then you need to import these users into Azure Active Directory first, then add them at the account level before being able to add them to a security group.
