Answer 1

Try below code:

SPWeb web = SPContext.Current.Web;
Group visitorGroup = web.AssociatedVisitorGroup;

You can also try below method:

int idOfGroup = Convert.ToInt32(web.Properties["vti_associatevisitorgroup"]);
SPGroup group = web.SiteGroups.GetByID(idOfGroup);

Or iterating through the site groups as below:

public static SPGroup GetVisitorsGroup(SPWeb web)
{
    if (web.Properties["vti_associatevisitorgroup"] != null)
    {
        string idOfVisitorGroup = web.Properties["vti_associatevisitorgroup"];
        int visitorGroupId = Convert.ToInt32(idOfVisitorGroup);

        foreach (SPGroup group in web.SiteGroups)
        {
            if (group.ID == visitorGroupId)
            {
                return group;
            }
        }
    }
    return null;
}
