a) No, you don’t have to transfer to Engineering. Having the words “minor” on your transcript is of little importance, just take the math courses you want. You can also double major in math/physics in CAS with relative ease.

b) I would suggest taking the 2230-2240 sequence. You will get both of a treatment of linear algebra and multivariable calculus. You should be in fine standing math-wise to understand the concepts in 2217. Even if you only took 2210-2220, you should be fine when it comes to 2217. The pre-requisites are merely guidelines, not hard and fast rules.
