Most likely no.

No, Apple will replace the exact model that you have.

Wrong

Most likely no.

See above...


As per OP, Apple will most likely do repair your device. However, at this point, the first iPhone is 5 years old and classifies officially as a vintage product, which means no parts will be available and/or Apple will refuse service for such outdated product.

I have heard rumors of people walking out with better iPhones, but I would take those with a hint of salt.

Worst comes to happen, Apple will just deny service and you will need a new device.

Not in this case. Not with an OG iPhone with a cracked screen.

Let's be real here. Would a retail store stock parts or replacement units for a product that's five years old and hasn't received software support for over two years? Nope. They'll most likely give you a refurbished 3G(s) for $200 with the latest firmware pre-installed.

Why is anyone still using the original iPhone? There's no way you're still locked in a contract, buy a new one!
