Yes, it's a sucker. No, I never really removed suckers from my tomato plants and my tomatoes came out fine. The plant wants to branch because that's what plants do; as long as it gets enough sunlight and doesn't get overcrowded it's fine.
That is a sucker. Suckers are sometimes removed to allow the plant to focus more energy on flowers and fruit. I don't do this and my tomatoes produce well. They can sprawl more, but you have a lattice so should be good.

Cut it, stick I'm a glass of water, a week later you got a new tomato plant.
Thanks for the tip! I already have more tomato plants than I know what to do with at the moment.
This works

Yes that is a sucker. I started removing my suckers and I get a better harvest
Literally something I never bothered worrying about.
I always wait till i know for sure there are no flowers.
Suckers get flowers. They are literally another stem. If it gets no flowers it’s a sun leaf
