Answer 1

I made a few changes in your CSS:

h1{
    text-align: center;
    font-size: 70px;
}

h1:before, h1:after{
    position: relative;
    content: "";
    width: 30%;
    left: 35%;
    display: block;
    margin-bottom: 10px;
    margin-top: 10px;
    border-bottom: 5px dotted yellow;
}

EDIT:

If you want a fixed width you can add:

h1:before, h1:after{
    width: 150px;     /* You can change this value */
    left: 50%;
    transform: translateX(-50%);
}
