They do, in fact! :) As they get older, they change colors and size. For example, our star is a yellow star. Near the end of its life, it will likely become a large red star, called a "red giant". And at the end, it is believed that it will become a tiny star called a "white dwarf". Did you know that the largest stars (typically blue stars), often live the shortest lives? ~Apple Juice

Yes, if it's large enough, a star needs to be at least 1.4 times the mass of our sun to have a chance at becoming a supernova.

The color of a star changes through it's lifetime, typically starting off as blueish, then becoming yellow, and finishing its life as a red giant. So a yellow star is probably around the middle of its lifetime, but that doesn't mean anything about what will happen when the star dies.

Blue stars are the hottest, because they are newborn stars.

Yellow stars are medium age stars, like our sun, and are right in the middle.

Red stars are the oldest, and will explode very soon, so those are the coolest (but still pretty hot; hotter than your oven!).

Whether a star can become a black hole or not depends not so much on its color, but on its mass. Only the most massive stars can become black holes; the amount of mass remaining AFTER a supernova explosion must be at least something like 2-3 solar masses.I am pretty sure that such massive stars can be yellow at some point of their lives.

Not all stars are yellow, depending on the gas being burned, and the age of the star, stars can be almost any color.

The color of a star is what?

The color of a star is its . . . color. In other words, a star's color shows us how white-hot it is. Some stars, like our Sun, are colored slightly in the yellow direction of white-hot. Bigger stars are less yellow and more blue - the bigger, the hotter, the bluer shade of white-hot they are. Red giants, white dwarfs and black holes are something related, but different.
