LINQ vs SQL while working with RDBMS

Can I absolutely abandon SQL if I choose LINQ?

If Yes, then, Should I absolutely abandon SQL if I choose LINQ?

After making a connection to RDBMS using DataContext-class, do I actually need SQL?

Only for the most simple cases, and no. Respectively.

Linq is certainly awesome, but I don't know why you'd intentionally abandon SQL. Linq2SQL's translations are pretty good, but sometimes, for an extra hairy report or something, there's no substitute for writing a stored procedure yourself.
