Answer:
In the image, we can see that the arrows go from the negative pole to the positive pole.
This image then represents the flow of electrons in the situation (Remember that we define current as the flow of "holes", so current is usually defined in the opposite direction than the flow of electrons).
Second question:
In a current, the electrons usually do not move really fast (in average velocity).
Now, the current flowing in a given material will depend mostly on:
The area of the material (a cable with larger diameter can have a larger electricity than a thin cable) and the material itself (there are some materials that are really good conductors, and there are materials that are bad conductors)
Now, this concept of good/bad conductor can be thought as follows,
A bad conductor has a lot of particles (for example electrons in the inner energy levels) in the way of the flow of electrons, and when the electrons want to move, they may interact with those particles, and then the flow of electrons is diminished.
For a good conductor, those particles do not interact, and there are not a lot of these particles. (Also good conductors have more electrons in the valence level, so there are more electrons that can flow in the material).
Another important factor is the temperature of the material, we know that when we increase the temperature of a material, the particles of this material will have an increment in its kinetic energy, then those particles will be moving a lot, and there is a larger possibility that there will be an interaction with the flowing electrons.
In the case where the object is really cold, the kinetic energy of the particles will be small, and these will be more "ordered", which helps with the current flow.
Then we can conclude that the electricity does not really depend on the speed of the electron, it depends more of the material of the conductor and the cross-section area.
