  2. The black square in the highlighted area defines the foreground color. This color applies to all coloring tools, like the bucket

  3. Even though it is late I want to add a particular case:

    Reopen your Toolbox window

    If you need to reopen your toolbox, use the key combination Ctrl+B or navigate through (GIMP version 2.8.14):

    Windows > Toolbox

    In this toolbar you can change the color by just clicking on the foreground or background color as indicated by @OrangeTux and @Warren Hill.
