The size of the black hole - that is, the diameter of the event horizon - will increase if the mass of the black hole increases. Over time, black holes normally do gain extra mass from attracting it through gravity. However, they can also lose mass via Hawking radiation and eventually evaporate. Hence, the age of a black hole has little relevance to its size.

That is very likely, since any matter that falls into a black hole will make it larger. However, I don't think this has been actually verified - the time elapsed since the first black hole was discovered is quite short, compared to the lifetime of a black hole.

Not necessarily more powerful, but there's a more violent gravitational pull with smaller black holes.
