No, not at all. The paste coloring has a much more intense coloring effect, so I would recommend using about a half teaspoon, then check the color to see if you need to add a bit more. But you will need to increase your liquid to compensate for the loss of 2 fluid ounces, which can be done by increasing the oil and/or buttermilk by 2 ounces.

It's not possible to generalise. Paste gives a more concentrated colour than liquid colouring, so it will take less. Add the paste bit by bit, stirring well with each addition, and stick when you reach a colour that you like. Colour does not change too much with baking (although crust will be darker than the inside of the cake).
