Answer: Jack's wife, Sarah, was in an accident with Shannon's father, Adam

In "Man of Science, Man of Faith", we see how Jack met his then-future wife, Sarah: she was in a car accident with Adam Rutherford, Shannon's father. Jack decided to concentrate on Sarah and as a result, Adam died.
In "Abandoned", six episodes later, we can see Jack running through the hospital corridor while Shannon and her stepmother are waiting for a doctor to tell them what happened to Adam.

Answer: Locke inspects a house that Nadia, Sayid's unrequited love, plans to buy

We meet Nadia in "Solitary", where we learn that she was Sayid's childhood friend and long lost love. Sayid helps her escape from prison and spends the next seven years looking for her, coming to believe she is dead. However, in "Lockdown", we see Locke inspecting a house for her.

Answer: a painting by her ex-boyfriend Thomas is hanging in the office of Penelope's father, Charles Widmore

In "Raised By Another", Claire and Thomas are seen in their apartment, and Thomas' painting hangs on the wall. The same painting (or perhaps a print of it) can be seen in Charles Widmore's office in "Flashes Before Your Eyes". Charles Widmore is the father of Desmond's girlfriend Penelope.

Answer: Santa Rosa Mental Health Institute

We see the institute first in "Numbers", where we learn that Hurley was admitted to Santa Rosa for depression. Later, in the episode "Dave", we see that Libby was in the same institute at the same time as Hurley.
In "Deus Ex Machina", we also find out that Locke's mother was committed to the facility several times for schizophrenia.

Answer: Rose

Christian is Claire's father, as we find out it "Par Avion", making her and Jack half-siblings.
Ana Lucia traveled to Australia together with Christian ("Two For The Road"); she also had a brief encounter with Jack at the airport bar in "Exodus: Part 1".
Sawyer and Christian ended up having drinks together in a cocktail bar in Sydney ("Outlaws").
There is no connection between Rose and Jack, at least none that we are aware of.

Answer: True

Diane is a waitress in a diner where Sawyer meets his partner, Gordy ("The Long Con").
Sam is seen in Sayid's flashback in "One Of Them", carrying a picture of a younger Kate. In the same episode we also learn that Sayid know Kelvin Joe Inman, who would later train Desmond to live on the island. Since we can assume that Inman and Sam Austen also knew each other, they also establish a connection between Kate and Desmond.
