Technically there is not such thing as a non-living cell, because all cells are living, though it might just mean a cell that has died.

No, it is not size that determines whether a cell is dead or living, merely whether it is alive or not. Regardless of size, they are all living.

Generally, no. A cell is either alive or dead. Nonliving (nonlife) is a characteristic assigned to something like a virus.

It can have nonliving cells. Think of a piece of wood, those are tree cells but they are non-living.
