Yes. Utah Code § 75-2-502(2) recognizes holographic wills where the material portions are in the testator's handwriting and the document is signed by the testator; witness signatures are not required.

Not always. Utah allows small estate affidavits for estates valued below $100,000 in personal property. Revocable living trusts and beneficiary designations can also bypass probate entirely.
