No, change of partners means the points start again for the second airline.

You have to pay each sector separately.

One accompanying guest permitted and must be travelling on QF, JQ or oneworld®# marketed and operated flight on the same day.

Unsure if this is answered elsewhere but thought I'd ask: does one earn status credits if they are a Points Club member travelling on a partner operated classic award if the classic award carries a QF flight number? For instance, flying KLM business award but it's got a QF flight number?

I believe the answer is yes.

Can partner awards be booked with QF flight numbers? I thought it usually defaults to the operating carriers code

Correct. There are a couple of exceptions SB is/used to be one.

The QF search might show a QF codeshare for sale (eg EK and FJ) but if you click through to CR it switches the code to operating carrier.

Also, to get a KL operated, QF codeshare (eg SIN-AMS), I would expect that to have to be booked with a QF feeder flight from Oz.

It’s not KL by the way I simply used it as an example to hide the identity of this “opportunity” and it’s not originating or terminating in Oz either.
