Technically the explosion of a Red giant is not called a Supernova as the mass of the star is not great enough. However the explosion from a Red Super Giant can be called a supernova. A normal Red giant doesn't actually explode, the core just collapses again to cause a white dwarf and the outer layers are ejected to form planetary Nebulae.
The explosion of a red giant is called a supernova. It would be quite spectacular to watch!

White dwarf.
When a Red Giant or any large star explodes, it is called a super nova, creating a either a black hole or a neutron (pulsar) star.
The Big Bang.
Yes, if the star is massive enough when the core collapses a supernova explosion happens.
