Are you less likely to get an interview if you don’t have a LinkedIn? Looking to get into consulting, Tier 2 consulting firms

I have an interview tomorrow with a recruiter who contacted me through LinkedIn. I believe I am way under-qualified for the position and I pointed that out to her, but she responded with several points from my resume as to why she believes the role is a good fit with my experience. It would be a leap, but maybe I need to take it as a challenge and not limit myself? I just don’t want to get in over my head and fall flat on my face. What are some questions I could ask during the first interview?

Have an interview tomorrow and wrote down some notes in my notebook on what I know about the company/founders/role and questions I have. Is it ok to bring this into the interview?
