Yes, you could still definitely get pregnant, the chance is ALWAYS still there, except after menopause. The person that answered before me is actually very wrong. It is not "so close to zero" condoms actually only have 88% effectiveness. However, birth control IF TAKEN CORRECTLY (without missing pills, and taking the same time every single day) is about 99%, but if you miss a pill, or take them different times each day, it goes down to about 85%-90%.
That's why me and my boyfriend use both condoms and I take birth control, as well as a Optivite (a vitamin supplement) that can also help with the birth control.
So yes, you should still be very careful, I suggest getting the plan b pill from the pharmacy (or better known as the morning after pill) just in case you ever have an accident, with the condom breaking, or you feel like the sperm could have leaked out of the condom. A plan b pill is ALWAYS good to have around.

Not really no. People tend to say that there is always a chance, and that is of course true, but this chance is so close to zero I think it would be considerably more likely to be struck by lightning.
There should be nothing to worry about.

If you have been taking the pill regularly and the condom didn't break, the pregnancy risk is very low. Even if the condom did break, your pregnancy risk would still be low because your taking the pill, however you would be at risk of catching sexually transmitted infections. I hope that answered your question.
