What kind of galaxy is Betelgeuse in?
Our own galaxy, the Milky Way. In general, most stars that have a proper name (as opposed to just a catalog number), and definitely all stars you can see with the naked eye (except for an occasional supernova) are part of our own galaxy.
Why are elliptical galaxies redder than disk galaxies?
Actually, it doesn't matter what kind of galaxy it is, because it depends on what kind of stars are in it. If a galaxy has a lot of red giants, it will appear redder than a galaxy with mostly blue-white stars. Older galaxies might be redder than younger galaxies due to the fact that older stars appear redder.

The milky way galaxy can be characterized as kind measurement in light-years how many stars?
The question is somewhat confusing, so I am not sure what you mean. The Milky Way is a galaxy; it has a diameter of about 100,000 light-years; it has between 100 and 400 billion stars (the exact number is not known).
Is the milky way the largest galaxy of its kind?
No. The largest known galaxy of its kind is the spiral galaxy Malin 1.
