The world would be more harmonious if only there were more musicians.

If you're a beginner yes it is advised to start with an acoustic. You can get clean sound on an electric as well but I would suggest you buy an electric when you are good at playing and spending all that money becomes worth it.

Can acoustic guitar strings be reused?
Yeah you can, this is completely fine, it's not ideal of course and there is a risk of the string snapping at the kink where it originally wrapped around the post, but for the most part you should be fine.
