Answer 1

Yes, I'll explain everything!
1) There are drivers in the kernel (!!!), and most likely they will start. We look lsmod | grep i915
If it did not start, then either the chipset is not supported, or some kind of misalliance with the hardware and driver (which is very rare).
2) The graphics system driver (XWindow) clings to the kernel driver. But it does not always correctly determine what we need and starts using the VESA driver instead of the accelerated driver. You can look in the X logs (somewhere in the bowels of /var/log/, I don’t remember now).
To defeat the enemy, I recommend creating a directory /etc/X11/xorg.conf.dand registering a file there with a name 20-intel.confwith text

Section "Device"
    Identifier "Intel Graphics"
    Driver "intel"
EndSection

Restart system.

In general, the drivers are in the repository and were installed during the installation of the system, this is a fact. But if you really want the very latest drivers: INSTALLING THE INTEL DRIVER IN UBUNTU 16.04
