Companies have gotten quite good at digging up your employment history. If you were fired for a legitimate reason, tell them why you were fired and what lessons you have learned from it. If it was a long time ago, talk about your most relevant work experience and how well you have done since being fired.

The basic purpose of asking this question is to check your EQ and see if you have the guts to make tough decisions. If you have fired anyone in the past, discuss your experience and approach.

The rule of thumb is to avoid talking about money during the interview. But if the interviewer asks, you should be able to come up with a concise number. If the job announcement has a non-negotiable starting salary, go with that. If the announcement has a range, you should pick a salary figure that is commensurate with your experience and skill level. It is important not to undervalue yourself but it is also important to not ask for too much too soon.
