For the first question, I’m not sure how the value is being submitted so I’m assuming that $_GET[‘press’] is an array of the selected values, if this assumption is incorrect then you’ll need to alter that part to match the submitted value.

foreach ($years as $key => $value) {
  foreach ($value as $year) {
    ?>
      <option value="<?php echo $year; ?>"<?php 
        if (in_array($year, $_GET['press'])) {
          echo ' selected="selected";
        }
        ?>><?php echo $year; ?></option>
    <?php 
  }
}

To show the posts for the selected years you need to create a pre_get_posts filter that alters the WP query. https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Action_Reference/pre_get_posts.
