Answer 1

SELECT column1, column2, ...
FROM table_name
ORDER BY column1, column2, ... ASC|DESC;

The sql [ORDER BY] command is used to sort the result set in ascending or descending order.

SELECT column1, column2 FROM table_name ORDER BY column1 DESC;

Answer 2

Try php function mysqli_fetch_all () --- >> you don't need a while-loop. Then create a new array and populate it with the required number of records.

Like this:

$query = "SELECT TOP 5*FROM `MyTable`";
// Or alternative query: "SELECT*FROM `MyTable LIMIT 5`

$result = mysqli_query($connection, $query);

   if($result != 0) {
      $newDataArray = mysqli_fetch_all($result, MYSQLI_BOTH);
   }
