Yes. The more massive the star, the faster if develops - and the faster it grows old and dies. A very massive star will die in a supernova explosion, which may result in a neutron star or a black hole.

The larger the mass of a star, the faster it will use it's fuel supply.

In the case of very large stars (Blue giants) their lifespan is in millions of years, whereas a small star (Red dwarf) has a life span in the trillions of years.

Yes, bigger stars burn expend their fuel faster than smaller stars regardless of surface temperature.

Because even the smallest of stars are >1000 times bigger than the Earth, stars would not burn up in our atmosphere, but instead just annihilate everything in it's path, but there's no need to worry the closest star is16.308 light-years from the Solar System, and the universe is actually expanding so no stars are going to annihilate the earth.

Do shooting stars collide with other stars?

Shooting stars are not stars. They are bits of dirt and dust that burn up in our atmosphere. As they fly through our atmosphere they briefly look stars, which is how the names shooting or falling stars have come about, but they are not stars. Were such a piece of dirt to head toward a star, it would burn up long before it got anywhere close to it, so it could not hit it. A shooting star is usually what most call meteors and burn up in earths atmosphere giving the appearance of a falling star.

How do some stars become shooting stars?

Shooting stars are not stars. They are bits of dirt and dust that burn up in our atmosphere, briefly making them look like stars. Most of that is debris is from comets or others bits of dirt in space, but they are not stars and were not stars. So stars do not become shooting stars.
