SO, Non-Baryonic Dark Matter is collisionless with itself and ANY baryonic matter, which means that it has a 'straight-line' path (Unless it is completely motionless?) that cannot be altered by baryonic matter or any collisions with itself.
The path is altered by gravity. It won't be a "straight line" unless the transverse component of its velocity is zero. Its path will be a conic section. just like any other mass.

SO, Please explain HOW Dark Matter 'spherical' Halos can form around galaxies?
They don't! The dark matter was there first and the baryonic matter was attracted to it.

How is that DM halo moving, ie; is it rotating spherically with the galaxies rotation?
The dark matter in the halo moves the same way that stars in globular clusters move. Each particle is own its own conic-section orbit.
