Yes, 'subordinato' can be used as a noun to refer to a subordinate person, like 'un subordinato' (a subordinate) or 'i subordinati' (the subordinates).

While often used for rank or position, 'subordinato' can also describe something that is dependent on or secondary to something else, like a clause in a sentence or an interest.

Not necessarily. While it implies a lower position, it doesn't always carry a negative connotation. It simply describes a hierarchical relationship or a dependency.
