... If I put the surrounds where the red triangles are, by the number "one" circles, the person sitting on the riser in the back row will have a surround speaker directly in front of the, due to the jog in the foundation,...
Will this affect their view??? ... if not, I don't worry about it (you can see I have something similar, but they don't obstruc the view)

... Good height, but both positions close to the ceiling. I thought the blue might be the best, but wondered also about putting some in-walls in the number one/red position AND some surrounds in the number two blue position as well. So a 9. system. The in-walls in red, number one position would keep the left rear from being so much in front of the left rear seat. At least it wouldn't block the view of the screen too...
I don't think there is a problem if the speakers are close to the ceiling (mine are 1' from ceiling) ... if you want to use a 9.1 system, I think is okay too; or if you want to get a bipole/dipole speaker and use it between rows I think it will be okay too. I use to have this speakers between my two rows (http://fluance.com/fluanbipsurs.html), the sound was good to me, but I remove them because their lowest frequency response was 130Hz and i wanted to use a speaker with a lower response



I don't know what speaker system you have, but there is some bipole/dipole speakers to choose from to complement any system
