Do the refrigerator get the heat out or cool in?
A refrigerator is a form of heat pump. It pumps heat out of something.
How is a refrigerator an example of a heat mover?
Normally, heat moves from a higher temperature to a lower temperature. Devices that use work to move heat are called heat movers. A refrigerator is an example of a heat mover because it takes the heat from inside of the refrigerator and moves it to the outside. The 2nd law of thermodynamics allows this to occur if work is done in the process. A refrigerator does work as it moves the heat from inside the refrigerator to the warmer room.
Is a refrigerator an insulator?
No, a refrigerator is a type of heat pump, it takes heat out of the inside and rejects it to a heat exchanger on the back. I don't see how it could be called an insulator

Can a refrigerator be put in a closet?
Maybe a small one, but they produce heat and I would imagine in an enclosed space they may not work well.
What is the function of the insulation refrigerator?
It keeps heat from outside the refrigerator from getting into the refrigerator.

Why do you get heat at the back of refrigerator?

Does a refrigerator change heat into cold?
no
Does a refrigerator change heat into cold remove thermal energy from inside the refrigerator or cause thermal energy to disappear?
Thermal energy never disappears, but it can be moved from one place to another, which is what a refrigerator does. If you examine your refrigerator you will be able to observe that there are heat exchange tubes (usually on the back) which get hot as they pump heat from the interior to the exterior of the refrigerator.
