Yes. Our sun is a star (Yellow Star.) All stars give energy, and heat, although some give less heat than others: A red giant gives out very little heat compared to a white dwarf.

most of the stars do, in slightly different form. But there are at least 2 forms, that don't: The so called neutron star and the so called brown dwarf.
The brown dwarf is nothing but a piece of solid and cold rock, the sad reminder of a small sun after it burned out.
The neutron star emits neutron rays (there the name comes from) but we wouldn't feel it as heat. by temperature it is "cold". But by radioaktivity, it is really "hot" ... so here the question is, what do you define as heat? Temperature only? Or the bandwith of wavelengths within we can "feel" any kind of radiation?

Yes, the Sun and the other stars give off heat.
One of the most common thermonuclear fusion processes occurs in stars when four hydrogen atoms combine into a helium atom, releasing energy that is transformed into light and heat.

How do you feel heat on earth? The sun of course. And what is the sun? It's a star.

yes, the sun is a star and it obviously gives off heat

some do and some not depending on there temp but once every star gives heat and intake heat

Yes, and a lot of it. You can feel it from the closest star to earth. The "stars" if you don't include our sun are just a little to far away to feel.

i believe so, stars are burning and burning is a chemical reaction that gives of heat and light.

Not necessarily. See, I starred this question and perceived no heat. :-)
