Yes, old 100 bills issued by the U.S. government are still valid currency and can be used for transactions.
Old bills are taken out of circulation by central banks and replaced with new bills. This process is called demonetization. Old bills are typically collected by banks and then destroyed either by shredding or burning to prevent them from re-entering circulation.
Yes, existing $100 bills are still valid. Unlike many other countries, the US doesn't formally withdraw old bills when new designs are introduced. Old bills continue to circulate until they wear out. When banks receive a worn-out bill it's returned to the Treasury for destruction.
$100 bills don't get as much use as smaller denominations so they don't wear out as fast. That means $100 bills as old as 1981 really don't have any added value if they turn up in circulation. However, a nice crisp uncirculated $100 with that date might be worth an additional $10 to $15 at retail.
$100 bills don't get as much use as smaller denominations so they don't wear out as fast. That means $100 bills as old as 1985 really don't have any added value if they turn up in circulation. A nice uncirculated one would retail for about $105 to $110 but a dealer would only offer face value.

Yes!
Old 100 bills feature a portrait of Benjamin Franklin on the front and an image of Independence Hall on the back. They are predominantly green in color and have intricate designs to prevent counterfeiting.
In 1945 the Treasury discontinued all bills with values higher than $100. Since 1969 banks have not been required to carry anything larger. Because these higher-value bills are so old and unusual it's doubtful that any of them are still in circulation. In any case they're worth more than face value to a collector so it wouldn't make sense to spend them.
Yes, banks are required to take obsolete bills and return them to the Treasury. However, taking an old bill to a bank generally isn't a good idea because they're only permitted to exchange them at face value. High-denomination bills, very old bills, and (sometimes) unusual bills can be worth more to a collector or dealer.
