They can be both. I wouldn't recommend eating any venomous animal as their venom may poison you. The venom may be digestible, but get a tiny scratch from one of those fangs and you will not be happy.

Can be, but iirc, there is only one snake that is in fact poisonous (to eat). Most snake venom is complex, unstable molecules that your stomach acids would destroy pretty quickly.
