Yes. VY Canis Majoris is about 4 billion kilometers across. This is comparable to the diameter of the event horizon of a 1.3 billion solar mass black hole. Black holes much larger than this have been detected in the centers of distant galaxies.
A black hole is more powerful than anything in the Universe except an XZ Majoris Ceiphei, so indeed you would have to die if you fell into a black hole for sure; except if you ARE an XZ Majoris Ceiphei.
There is not a black hole at the center of the Canis Major constellation. Canis Major is a constellation in the night sky and does not have a physical center like a galaxy that could potentially contain a black hole.
Astronomers typically measure the mass of a black hole by observing the movement of nearby stars or gas clouds affected by its gravitational pull. The size of a black hole's event horizon, known as the Schwarzschild radius, can also provide an estimate of its mass when combined with other observations. Additionally, the gravitational lensing effect caused by a black hole bending light can be used to indirectly estimate its mass.
The mass of the black hole would increase in proportion to the mass of the planet
Yes, a galaxy is typically much larger than a black hole. Galaxies can contain billions to trillions of stars and vast amounts of gas and dust, while black holes are typically formed from the remnants of massive stars with a gravitational pull so strong that not even light can escape from it.
When the canis majoris explodes, it will create a supernova of over 30000 degrees. A supernova is a huge explosion of fire. After the supernova, a black hole will form. Black holes form when a star explodes. But it cant just be a star. It has to be a star 10x greater then our sun. The canis majoris is way bigger then just 10x. So when it explodes it will create a black hole much bigger then normal size.
There are plenty out there. VY Canis Majoris is a definite candidate.
No. VY Canis Majoris is a red "hypergiant" star. It would not support life at all. If the Sun were somehow replaced by VY Canis Majoris, the Earth would be instantly vaporized. You might be thinking "but what if it was a planet instead of a star," but the notion of a planet that large is ludicrous; anything that big would instantly collapse into a black hole without heat and radiation pressure from internal fusion to oppose its own gravity.

things dont implode in a black hole they are dragged in and the black hole gets bigger
yes, as long as there are things that can fall into it, it can get bigger.
I don't think that either of these stars "have" a black hole.
The quasar is bigger. A quasar is a disk of superheated matter that surrounds a supermassive black hole. The mass of the black hole may be greater than that of the disk, but it is compacted into a smaller space.
Yes it is possible for Canis magoris to become a black hole, but at its current age it may either explode and turn into a dwarf star or implode and become a black hole. The process will take millions of year, but the possibility is there. But for a definite answer that is impossible at the current status of data. Their are just too many factors that could come into play.
VY Canis Majoris has a radius about 2,100 times that of the Sun. This means that about 9 billion Suns could fit inside it. See related link for a picture of the difference in size.
