Depends entirely on the scratches ;) Need to be careful that you don't over do it otherwise the screen becomes opaque when you shine a light through it, which isn't great.

Mind you don't accidentally hit it with a hammer while your polishing it, that would mean a new screen.

Yes you can. You should be able to find a good detailing shop that can do it for you with good results,

Here are som example videos:

Just have a rummage through YouTube and Google to find out more, if you want to DIY  :y

What does your insurance policy cover? Usually they allow the fitters that they specify (e.g.Autoglass) to polish out scratches and/or fill chip damage without affecting your NCB.
