No actual Retail CD would ever contain a virus, and swapping CD-R's between an infected computer and uninfected wont do anything.
If you wanted to burn a virus to a CD, of course you could, but that's the only way a CD could carry a computer virus.

If someone burned that CD with a virus, when you load it, yes. A CD will not pick up a virus from one machine and transfer it to another like the old days with floppies.

Yes, if the virus is on the CD and it is installed on the other PC somehow.

Well, if you are asking if you put a CD in an infected computer, then place it in a clean computer NO, no, no
