A virus can sometimes insert itself into data files, but this is a dead end. Data files cannot be started as programs by the operating system and if the file is not a program any virus in it cannot execute and perform its nefarious tasks. So properly designed viruses will look specifically for executable type files containing programs and not waste their time infecting data files.
Shell scripts are interpreted files that contain commands and logic sequences to do things. They are similar to programs in that they contain logic and sequencing, and call other programs to accomplish tasks. You use shell scripts to automate tasks in Unix, run tasks periodically, create repeatable tasks, etc.
Batch files are text files containing a series of commands to execute set of commands or run programs in a sequence. Batch files are like a script which, instead of entering and running individual commands are useful in saving time and executing programs even when computer user is not present. Batch files are useful for repetitive tasks (you do not need to enter all the commands every time you repeat the task). MS-DOS and Windows batch files end with .bat extension.

I guess you could say that application programs help you do something in the real world: Writing a letter to your mother, watching a video, making a presentation for work.Utility programs are generally all about computer administration: They let you defragment the hard drive, move files between computers and similar small and limited computer-related tasks.

An executable. In Windows systems, executable files are denoted with a .exe file extension. When double clicked on, the operating system will hand over control to the program, which allows it to carry out its given tasks.
software
software architect or software designer
yes.
Application software
The operating system allows you to use the computer, but you need specific programs to perform specific tasks. There is no single piece of software that allows you to perform every specific task.
