you cannot travel the whole of hokkaido, hence the name of the pass, jr-east-south hokkaido rail pass.

The key areas that it serves (within Hokkaido) are:
Sapporo (Capital of Hokkaido)
Hakodate (Last stop of Shinkansen line and a city with European influence)
Noboribetsu (One of Japan best onsen)
Lake Toya (Beautiful circular lake)
shin-Chitose Airport

It does not serve to the skiing region around Daisetsuzan or the beautiful snowscape area of Biei.

Yes. You can use it any six days of 14. One day to hakodate, one day return. Four other days of your choice it can be used on.
