It probably depends on a few factor, but I wouldn't count on this behavior.

No. User agent is a seperate header to a cookie.
If you are programatically calling web pages the library/framework would need to keep track if the cookies, otherwuse it will generate a new one each time.
Of-course, your IP will not change unless you do something on the network...
