If I create a database on MySQL using DW, will I need to continue paying for DW to keep the database alive? So when my subscription to DW dies, will the database?
Likewise, if I create a database, will the next person have to use DW to edit the database? Will they have to use my DW account to edit the database?

No, but its not recomended that you use the server behaviours that ship with DW (now only available in newer versions of DW as an extension) because the code they create is way past its sell by date and could stop working depending on what version of php your final destination server will be running.

No. You can use phpMyAdmin to directly edit a database which comes FREE if you download a local server package like MAMP, XAMPP or WAMP. Also your final destination server will have a copy of phpMyAdmin which can be accessed usually via its control panel.
But usually you would make changes to your website/database using some kind of Content Managment System which is more user friendly than using phpMyAdmin
