theoretically, yes. There has to be an area that all the universe is expanding from. Scientists say that the universe is either expanding or contracting, and something cannot expand or contract unless expanding or contracting to/from a point. We can assume that the point is not on the side of wherever it is moving to/from. So it is not billowing out at an angle from somewhere. We can then assume that there is a center that is expanding or contracting. If there weren't a center, then scientists would be contradicting themselves anytime they say that the universe is expanding or contracting.

The Big Bang did not take place at any one, specific point. It was NOT an explosion of matter from a point into empty space. It was an EXPANSION of space itself, taking place at every point in our Universe, and dragging matter along with it. Thus, our Universe has no center.
Your question is thus based on two fallacies. However, this is understandable, as popular presentations of the Big Bang often portray it as an explosion of matter from a specific point. It's just that this idea is completely wrong.

Why was the Big Bang neither big nor did it bang?
According to the believes of physics and the big bang, we know that the big bang was both big and a bang. Since we are still receiving radiation from the big bang, So considering that factor I would say that it was big and a bang. What do you believe?
If there was no universe or plants where did the big bang happen?
It happened in the center of the universe, for which it is still expanding on the universe.
What is the difference between the big bang theory and the geocentric theory?
The "geocentric theory" refers to the discarded notion that the Earth is at the center of the universe. The Big Bang theory is the model that explains how the universe is basically homogeneous in all directions, and that there is no topological center or preferred place of observation in the universe.

What were the affects after the big bang?
Everything that ever happened - or at least, everything we know of - happened after the Big Bang, and was, in a way, affected by the Big Bang.
If there was a big bang wouldn't there be a big hole in the center?
The theory is that there is a hole at the center of the universe, but that it is smaller then the size of an atom. Otherwise nothing is really known

How did it what? - It isn't known what caused the Big Bang, if that's what you mean.
What is the ultimate fate of the universe according to the classical Big Bang advocates?
To go back together because of the force of gravity pulling everything into a pinpoint center, causing a singularity, and then probably causing another big bang.
