One good way is to look at the size of the stuff sack that yours came in. Get the same or one size down. I'd recommend the 10L or even a 16L, depending on your particular bag. If you're storing a sleeping bag, you should also consider a eVent bag, which is the same as this, but waterproof: http://www.backcountry.com/sea-to-summit-event-compression-dry-sack

Depends on the bag. Bags meant for colder conditions have more insulation and are therefore bigger and bulkier. Looks like EMS lists the... "stuff size" on their website (under technical specs) if you can find your bag there. I'm not sure if that corresponds to the dimensions of stuff sacks listed here (I'm used to manufacturers listing the volume), but it's a good bet that it will give you an indication of what size to get.
