I wonder if with the Google Maps API I can trace a route between two points, taking the distance and time to go, as well as Maps Android application, if anyone has an example of how to do, I am grateful.
Check this link: Android google maps APIs get directions programming
There are no official android API for google maps routing. If you want that, you should download the path from google maps web service and draw the path (polygon) manually.

I want to develop an application with the use of offline map,But i have no any idea for doing the same, can anybody explain me how to integrate offline map in android for a particular country?
You have the option of using OpenStreet Map via osmdroid.
osmdroid is a (almost) full/free replacement for Android's MapView (v1
API) class. It also includes a modular tile provider system with
support for numerous online and offline tile sources and overlay
support with built-in overlays for plotting icons, tracking location,
and drawing shapes.

I need to know if the link on contact page that I'm working on don't have error.
I mean if the android user not installed google maps app yet, what's happens when his touch the image link? Or as iOS, the maps app Already comes installed?
One possible approach is checking if the user has Google Maps installed on the device. If not, direct the user to the Play Store. This link can be useful

I'm working on an app that shows the maps of only a single city. i'm working with offline maps for this app. For this reason is it possible to use MapFragments with offline maps?? Can anybody guide me in this regard??
Of course it's possible to use MapFragment and the Maps v2 API offline.
This is useful if you want to show your own map material.
(However as hinted by Audrius K, you are not allowed to cache any GoogleMaps data, but I don't think that was you question anyway.)
(There was a bug a few weeks ago about initialized the map component offline but that bug has been reported to Google and fixed. I mention it in case you'd find mention of that bug in your research)
I don't think that Googles Term of services even lets you to use it offline. Possible answer Downloading/Caching Google Maps for Offline Use
You always can try to use OpenStreetMaps, but that won't work with map fragment :)

Is there any way to draw optimal route(considering traffic) between two geopoints using Android Google maps API?
Yes, but you'll need to do some work with the Google Maps API to get it going. Here's a link to a tutorial that explains how:
http://www.anddev.org/google_driving_directions_-_mapview_overlayed-t826.html
Alternatively you can just link from your app to the Maps app, and let Maps show the directions & route.
