I'll clarify: I don't like the argument: "Link and Zelda were only friends in TP, so they must have been in OoT" in response to plot/game similarities. I like to take each game/Link and Zelda seperately.
I like general nostalgia though, I loved WW for the references to OoT.

Perhaps there is evidence that he wasn't born there, but maybe since he was a little child or any other age, he made a strong friendship to Ilia. It could result in love later on if he stays there to live after his adventure, but I'm not really sure.
I doubt they did: maybe it was just a matter of space and him wanting some independance. If I had to make a guess on his past, I'd guess he was either brought to Ordon as a tiny kid with his folks who then died or brought as a orphan. He'd be raised as one of them ( a rancher ) although he isn't one or his parents weren't.
I think he would bond to Ilia if only because she's the only one his age. But that could work against them romantically...the sense of inevitability he may not like. Their relationship has never been tested either, and I think Midna may have thrown a wrench into it. I only got that feel because of how devastated he looked when the mirror broke.
