Yes, the green line is also a wire.

The other question I don't understand.

Bad idea. Use a perfboard. Less chance of bad connections and much cleaner...

Just use perfboard with stripes, not individual holes. Sure, you can do it without the perfboard, or with perfboard with individual holes, but it'll be messy and it's more likely you will fuck something up...
