Answer 1

You need to move the initialization of

Person tempPerson = new Person();

into the loop

        string[] personArray;

        List<Person> people = new List<Person>();
        foreach (string line in lines)//lines are the people from file, it is correct
        {
          personArray = line.Split(',');
          if (personArray.Length == 2)
          {
           Person tempPerson = new Person();
           tempPerson.Name = personArray[0];
           tempPerson.Address = personArray[1];
           people.Add(tempPerson);
          }
        }

Otherwise you are changing the properties of the same object.
