7. This is just to determine if they have a quorum which means
51 senators present.

A roll call

9. No, this is the actual cloture vote.
Either that, or Obama just walked into the Senate and told them he's not there.

This is IT!

10. No ...

A roll call is not a quorum call. A quorum call is a quorum call.

When a roll call vote is being taken, that is the actual vote. They call the roll to determine their vote. When you look up how people voted on various measures, you look up the roll call votes.
