Now we just need Amethyst to answer this question and the Quagsire trio will be complete.

Answer 1

No.

This Bulbapedia page on Friendship has a table for each of the main games, which details all of the possible ways to earn Friendship in that game. In the BW table, Potions are not listed as a way to gain Friendship.

Hope I helped!

ok
thanks

Answer 2

No. Potions do not increase friendship. Here are items that can increase friendship:

Friendship increasing Berries
Grepa, Hondew, Kelpsy, Pomeg, Qualot, and Tamato all increase Friendship, although you lose some EVs in turn.
Soothe Bell
If a Pokémon is holding a Soothe Bell, increases to its friendship are boosted by 50% of the change. Basically, you increase the amount of Friendship you get when you hold this Item. Source

Alternatively, other ways you can obtain Friendship is by leveling them up, giving them Vitamins, (e.g Protein, Carbos, Zinc) catching the Pokemon in Luxury / Friend Balls, etc.

Answer 3

I was going to answer this before I got absolutely sniped, but I'm still going to answer. I searched Bulbapedia on potions, super potions, and hyper potions. Potions do not provide friendship in B/W, but I wanted to mention they did in Pokemon Yellow when used on starter Pikachu.
Bulbapedia:

Potions
Super Potions
Hyper Potions
