Giants supergiants white dwarfs have left the main sequence?
Yes, all those types of stars have left the main sequence.
Is there such thing as a red star?
Yes. The lowest mass stars are red dwarfs while many older stars turn into red giants and red supergiants.
What is the smallest star to the biggest star of these 1. neutron stars 2. white dwarfs 3. dwarf stars 4.giants 5. supergiants?
You have the order right!
Which of the stars are considered a dwarf star?
Basically, all stars that aren't "giants", "supergiants", or "hypergiants" are considered dwarf stars. This means that all stars on the main sequence are dwarfs.
What classification of stars has the lowest surface temperature?
Black dwarfs have the lowest surface temperature.
