If you already knew C++ you don't need to learn C. Programming related jobs anyways more likely require higher level programming​ languaged such as Java, Python and JavaScript. But learning C language can still be good idea because most of high level languages, including those Java, Python and JavaScript are highly based on C. Also C's basic syntax does not differ much on many high level programming languages. Simplified: ~If you are want to get a programming related job with minimum time, I'd recommend Java. ~If you want to get deeper knowledge in programming, I'd recommend C.

In my opinion yes, it's advisable, I have been using C language in my electrical engineering projects and it works good, and it a language that is almost similar to python, which will save time to learn two languages at one time.

It directly depends on your goals. If you want to work with embedded systems and/or linux kernel, you need C.
