Is it a must to raise on the pre-flop if you are the one acting first - or can you just dry call

sometimes yes and sometimes no, by raising, we can also play the bluff line further

It's not necessary, but only by matching the initial bet you give those who entered a chance of beating you with bad cards. Just that
