That would depend on what kind of larvae you are talking about. Be more specific?
wasps life cycle is that they start as anegg, then hatch and become larvae, the adults put the larvae in comb shaped cells, the adults then feed the larvae. once fed the larvae are enclosed within the cell, when they are done growing they eat there way out. the larvae are now nymphs. they will then become adults!
Yes, all insects hatch from eggs. However they hatch as larvae not adults. Between the larvae stage and the adult stage insects become pupa.
Most crustaceans start their life as an egg. They then become larvae and go through several stages before they become adults.
The free-swimming larvae can travel much greater distances than the bottom-dwelling adults, increasing their range. If the environmental conditions for the adults become bad, the larvae can travel to another area that may be more favorable.

There are many books about insect metamorphosis available at libraries. Most describe how metamorphosis begins soon after a female ladybug lays a small mass of tiny yellow eggs which are already fertilized. The larvae that hatch from the eggs are small caterpillars having six legs and their backs are covered with forty to fifty sharp spines for protection from predators. The larvae feed on leaves and shed their skin several times as they grow, and then attach themselves to the underside of plant leaves to become pupae after reaching full size. The pupae are about the size of adults, but take a few days to complete their final metamorphoses. The larvae skins then split, uncovering yellow colored pupae which become red colored adults soon after exposure to the air.
Metamorphism
The opposite of adults would be children. The opposite of adult insects would be larvae.
Larvae is the plural form of larva. Larvae are the early developmental stage of insects, while larva refers to a single individual in this stage. Larvae typically undergo metamorphosis to become adults, while larva is a specific term used to describe this stage in an insect's life cycle.

Complete Metamorphosis
Yes, all larvae molt. Adults don't however - nothing does after pupating as the insect is 'finished' and stopped growing.
