Does this mean that the three spheres are inside the cylinder or is the cylinder solid?

All bodies are solid.

"arranged on a plane" = the arrangement is 2-dimensional (and "touch the plane" is implied thereby). is this what was meant?

All five solids lie on a plane. The problem is in 3 dimensions

The plane is two-dimensional though? i.e. it is not a hyperbolic parabolic plane, or some such thing, but resides only in two dimensions? Or are we allowed to assume otherwise? The problem doesn't specify the plane to be in 2 dimensions.

The plain is flat.
