It was at 9 o'clock when the meeting began -- correct. It was at 9 o'clock that the meeting began -- incorrect, but often used colloquially. Going to bed early and getting up early are good habits -- correct. "Are" is required because there are two habits (1. Going to bed early. 2. Getting up early.); therefore, you need to use the plural "habits" to make the sentence correct. Going to bed early is a good habit -- correct. Getting up early is a good habit -- correct.
