Answer
The answer to question number one would depend on who you are as an individual.  Everyone is unique in some way.  Perhaps you have musical talent, can sing, have won an award or been acknowledged for some other skill or talent, can speak more than one language, are a trained dancer, etc.  

You'll have to come up with what makes you - you.

For question number two, presumably you can assure them that you are both able and willing to show up for work opportunities or jobs on time, ready to work, (and be easy to work with), and of course will represent the agency with your best abilities and professionalism.

For question number three, you could answer either referencing your answers from question two (that you'll be on-time, ready to work and professional) or if you know something about the agency, you could choose to answer referencing clients they have or work that they book is of particular interest to you and your goals as a model.

An example of that would be if you know that they book a lot of couture catwalk work, and that also happens to be your goal, you could mention that.  Or if they often work with a few photographers you're a great fan of, mention that.  If you know that the agency will help you plan your career path and work with your goals as a model, mention that if it's something you're looking for.

There aren't right and wrong answers to any of those questions.  They want to get a sense of who you are (personality) and whatever you decide to answer, just keep in mind that they are asking the questions from the point of view of a (modeling) business, so if you stay as close to that topic as you can, it's a good thing.

Good luck to you,
