Next, is ChangeFPS() the right function to use if I have a source that is 25fps and I want it to be correct for NTSC BEFORE importing into my MPEG encoder?

Yes but do NOT do it at 29.97, but at 23.976. After encoding you will pulldown the video in order to activate the "3:2 pulldown during playback" flags. This way your player will see it as a 29.97 video.

Never try to change a fps by this way.

Also, I notice that a lot of scripts prefer FILM (23.976). Is there an advantage to this? Will my authoring tool make a valid disc this way?

For a second of movie you need to encode 23.976 frames insteed of 29.970, so of course the video take less bytes to be encoded.
For the authoring, you didn't say if you are doing VCD or DVD, and what is the tool you use. But with a pulled down video, as explained above, all is okay.
