Yes, it is bad for them. Turtles, just like any animals, need to be in water or surroundings as close to their natural habitat as possible. Chlorine is not part of their natural habitat. If you have the turtle in chlorinated water, remove it immediately, rinse it off, and put it in "plain" water.

Yes, depending on the concentration of chlorine. Typical swimming pool chlorine concentrations would not be healthy for turtles.
