‘Used to’ and “avoir l’habitude”

Sarah ne faisait pas confiance à Thomas.

Sarah didn't use to trust Thomas. In French can you really express the idea of “used to” (do something) just by using the past imperfect tense (as here)? Or does it need “avoir l’habitude de …” ? Is there a difference in meaning in French? Merci

Other negations ?

I notice all the examples in this section refer to "ne pas". Can other negatives like rien and jamais be used?

'Je suis acteur.'' Who is speaking?

Unlike the examples in the explanation materials, THE question /answer is incorrect. The review materials limit the number of people to one actor and one actress (only two people). In the exam question, their is an unknown number of people (could be 100) therefore the person speaking is unknown.
