My questions:
1) Is it okay to just turn off the water supply and water heater
without releasing the pressure?

Yes.
You should also turn off the water heat. The chances of it running
dry are very low, but why take the chance?

As for opeing a valve, ther eis very little pressure to let go. If
you were to open and close it the pressure would be eliminated in
seconds and the water still left in the lines. IMO, it does not
matter.

Good idea to turn off the water. Also make sure you turn off the water
heater. It will save you heating expense, and it will also reduce the
chance of damage if you would have some sort of odd leak that caused it to
run dry.
