I am new to downloading/installing Vista beta OS images, and need some very
basic guidance. Build 5384 downloaded without incident; however, it is a file
type .ISO and doesn't self-install when double-clicked. So does it needs to
be burned to a DVD, or is there another app that will do install the image
for me?

Also, I just want to confirm that Ultimate 5384 uses the key category "Vista
Ulitmate 5270 and up Product Keys".

You have to burn the iso (as DVD image, don't burn it as a file) then
boot on this DVD.
About keys, I read on microsoft.public.windows.vista.general you need a
key for at least 5365 and up, so you'll have to generate a new key on
microsoft connect.
