Answer 1

echo $this->Html->image('imagename',array('alt'=>'myimage','class'=>'img-responsive'));

This is normal image without any link, now to wrap it with link tag use

echo $this->Html->link($this->Html->image('imagename',array('alt'=>'myimage', 'title'=>'myimage','class'=>'img-responsive')), [
                      'controller' => 'controllerName',
                      'action'     => 'actionName',
                      'id'         => $value['id'], //if any parameters are passed
                      ],['escape'    => false]);

Similarly you can assign the image tag to a variable and use it

$myImageVar = $this->Html->image('imagename',array('alt'=>'myimage','class'=>'img-responsive'));

echo $this->Html->link($myImageVar, [
                          'controller' => 'controllerName',
                          'action'     => 'actionName',
                          'id'         => $value['id'], //if any parameters are passed
                          ],['escape'    => false]);
