You need an adapter.
DIN 5 Pin Male <---> 2 RCA Female
Example: https://www.ebay.com/itm/389897551452

It's also possible to use the mic inputs but can't remember the details.
Same goes for the phono jacks, it's possible to use those with a resistor in series, I think 10k but don't quote me on that.

Yes. If you get the correct cable, that function switch selects which input will be playing. If it is set to tape, you will have to press tape keys. If set to radio, you'll listen to radio. If set to Phono, you'll listen to phono, and yes, if you select DIN IN, you'll listen to whatever is coming through on Din In.

You got the answer.
However, you should have bought 5 DIN to 4 RCA cable.

In a 5 DIN plug, one pin is common ground and the other 4 corresponds to Left / Right Line in and Line Out.

In a 5 DIN to 2 RCA cable, two of the 5 pins are unused.

Depending on the wiring in this deck and the wiring of the cable, it may happen that the 2 RCAs corresponds to Line Out!.
Had you bought DIN to 4 RCAs, two of them will be definitely Line Out, and the other two be Line In.

Anyway, now wait till you get the cable. In case you find that there is only a very feeble sound output, you will have to find a way to connect to the other two pins!

See this thread (page 2 onwards) to find what I am saying!

but my speakers has only + and - holes
No one mentions the speaker jacks. You don't care about them.

See the picture below I've drawn everything there.
Din5 connect to din5 of your boombox. Mode switch to Din.
You should test which 2 of the 4 RCA jacks (black, white, yellow, red) will work for you
and connect them to RCA jacks of BT receiver.

2 of them will take the audio line from Bluetooth adapter to your M70 (which is called Line In or Aux In of your M70).
The M70 will send the audio out (which is called the Line Out or Aux Out) while playing cassette tape or Radio to the other 2 RCA pins.

You will not use the other two RCAs, if you are going to use the cable only for connecting the Bluetooth adapter,
