All of Pennsylvania keeps the same time: Eastern Standard Time (EST, UTC−5) in winter and Eastern Daylight Time (EDT, UTC−4) in summer.
New York lies at 74.0° west, where mean solar time is UTC−4:56 (four minutes per degree of longitude). That is within 4 min of its standard time, so the sun is highest close to noon in winter, and about 1:00 PM in summer.

Yes. Pennsylvania moves its clocks forward one hour on the second Sunday of March at 2:00 AM and back on the first Sunday of November at 2:00 AM (local time).
These are the federal dates (15 U.S.C. §260a); the daylight saving time page has the law.
All coming change dates are on the America/New_York page.
Clock history of Pennsylvania
Pennsylvania has kept the same clocks as New York City since at least 1970: tzdata records both under America/New_York. Clocks have moved for daylight saving time every year since 1970. Before 1970 local practice could differ from New York City’s, and tzdata does not track it separately; the year-by-year table, which starts with New York City’s local mean time, is on the America/New_York page.
