If I update the v

Answer 1

Yes.

The data "in" a view has no existence independent from the tables that make up the view. The view is, in essence, a stored SELECT statement that masquerades as a table. The data is stored in the original tables and only "assembled" into the view when you want to look at it. If the view is updateable (not all views are) the updates are applied to the table data.
