1) If you add the user into the SharePoint directly through the SharePoint permissions then they have access to the SharePoint site and can do anything on the SharePoint site as per the permission level that you have given them. They have no access to anything else in the Office 365 group or access to the Microsoft Team. Any files that get added into the SharePoint site via the Microsoft Team they will have access to.
2) As ChrisWebbTech mentions you need to setup guest access in Microsoft Teams, doing that will enable you to add Guest Users to the Microsoft Team which in turn adds them into the SharePoint site. The setting is in the Teams Admin centre under Organisational settings. External Sharing/Guest Access cannot be done the other way around to give access to the Microsoft Team (EDIT: Through the Admin centre, see below for PowerShell options).
You do not need to do anything further for guest users to get access to the SharePoint site unless you have restricted SharePoint access by external domain in which case you need to go and set that in SharePoint tenant settings and the SharePoint site itself.
