And the check box means just what it says. If the box is checked, the
suffix is changed to the new domain suffix when the machine is moved to a
new domain.

If default suffix is : "mycompany.org"
machine name is: workstation2
The FQDN is assumed to be "workstation2.mycompany.com" unless
otherwise specified.

Yes. It will determine which zone it registers in. If the suffix is
domain.lcl, the machine will register in the domain.lcl DNS zone.
