The HX and VX get fuel economy a number of ways. One, as mentioned, is lean burn in
some circumstances. Another is relatively tall gearing. The engines are of relatively modest power and size, which also helps. They aren't optimized for top-end (high RPM) power, so they can work well in an operating regime that gets good MPG. I'm sure there are more reasons as well.
The Civic coupes will not seat five that I know of. The sedans (four-doors) can seat five, depending on how big they are and what year the sedan is.
Not sure on your other questions.
