Answer 1

You can use the Log property of DataContext object. Also, it depends on the type of application you are using.

For Web Application:-

db.Log = Response.Output;

For Console Application:-

db.Log = Console.Out;

Apart from this you can also use the GetCommand method of DataContext class. Sql Server Profiler is again an obvious option.
