If you're losing weight/in a calorie deficit, it's going to be next to impossible for you to build muscle

This. Anyways, if you're going for that "toned" look, that still comes from a heavy resistance program. Weight lifting is your friend. If you aren't consciously bulking, you will not gain muscle to make you look fat (not that it does anyways..)

No. A calorie deficit will make them go down, assuming we are not talking pure muscle, which I'm doubting.
