Yes,  petitioner and lottery winner mean exactly the same thing.

If you do have a SSN just answer yes and write the # down.

Please note that the answer is yes even if you already have an SSN but you do not have a green card.
When you get to the following question: Do you want the Social Security Administration to assign you an SSN (and issue a card) or issue you a new card (if you have an SSN?"

Answer yes to this question and to the "Consent of Disclosure" in order to receive an SSN and/or a green card.
If you are not sure of the address you will want to receive the documents say "to be determined at a later date"; you will be able to provide an address at the Consulate at the time of the interview.
