When is the earliest for I could use an instant or a creature ability on an opponents turn? Untap, Upkeep or Draw? Or just in response to something during the first main phase?

You can play an Instant whenever and activate a creature ability, as long as the creature ability doesn't say "Activate this ability only when you can cast a sorcery" or something along those lines.

No player gets priority during the untap step. Players receive priority for the first time in a turn during the upkeep. You may at this time activate abilities and cast instants or spells with flash.
