yes, all <p>s would have that style

no, you cant make things up, browsers don't know what to do with it (but
they may have a guess anyway) or weirdo things may happen including the
possibility of the total annihilation of the earth and i don't think you
would like to be responsible for that would you?
> <brhc style="position:absolute;bottom:0;right:0;">bottom right</brhc>
using an inline style will only apply the style to that element so the
below would work without any probs:
<p style="position:absolute;bottom:0;right:0;">bottom right</p>
its only when you're not using inline styles that you need to be more
specific unless you do want a style to apply to all the same elements.
you'll most probably only have one bottom right thingy per page so we'll
give it an ID (only allowed one unique ID per page)
this would go in the <head> between your <style ...> and </style> elements
or in an external css file:
#bottomrightthingy{position:absolute;bottom:0;right:0;}
<p id="bottomrightthingy">bottom right thingy</p>
if for some reason you have more than one bottom right thingy (eg an image
with text over it) you'd use a class.
..bottomrightthingy{position:absolute;bottom:0;right:0;}
<p class="bottomrightthingy">first bottom right thingy</p>
<p class="bottomrightthingy">second bottom right thingy</p>
