In addition to that being a nonanswer, what makes you think that Abel knows that answer to that? Because that doesn't seem like something that Eve would be proud to tell her children about. But it's okay to cop-out from answering a difficult relgious question that you don't know the answer for...
'If not, why not' is a wonder for sure. When Abel is resurrected we'll have to ask Abel for his thoughts.
Satan started out good (James 1:13-15) so what caused Satan to become a Satan, a Devil.
