The green color is because of the copper in the lines corroding from moisture in the brake fluid. Mine was slightly green when I did it a few months ago.

It's really not a big deal, it's good that you caught it now. In my case, I had a severe pull to the left, and it turned out the right front brake hose was clogged with crud, most likely the hose was coming apart. So I changed them on both sides and fully bled everything including the backs.

No, but you have to have it bled by a mechanic who has certain diagnostic tools to perform the bleed cycle.

Or, Forscan might work for that.
