"Could Microsoft eventually introduce Windows 10 monthly subscriptions for consumers?" Sure they could but it certainly wouldn't happen to the people that already upgraded... Microsoft isn't stupid... That is the fastest way to lose customers and get tons of lawsuits. They want people to come to Windows 10 due to Windows Store and ad stuff, not cause of a subscription service...

What MS will probably do is have a subscription based model for the users who don't upgrade. And enterprise models never reflect consumer pricing so just cause its $7 per month for enterprise will not mean its $7 per month for consumers.

They will essentially have two options imo, subscription or buy out right. Office has this since you can either get Office 365 which is a subscription based or Office Pro Plus which is buy once and you have it for life. They have this for Skype for Business as well... You can either pay monthly per user or buy their Server Edition.
