No. Convention defines perfect squares as squares of positive integers.

No it is not, as the square root of 240 is not an natural number or zero.
I have never before heard of a non-perfect square but I suppose it would be any non-zero number that is not the square of an integer. People sometimes say "perfect square" to mean an integer that is a square of an integer - I think the "perfect" is redundant but if you do not think "square" is clear by itself, say "integer square."
To find a number that is both a perfect square and a perfect cube, we must solve x2 = x3 over x ∈Z+. The only two solutions to this equation are 0 and 1, or x = {0,1}. Therefore, zero and one are the only two numbers that are both perfect squares and perfect cubes. --In easier terms: a perfect square is a number that can be "square rooted" and have no remainder. Like, 144. The square root is 12 therefore 144 is a perfect square. A perfect Cube is the same except that it must be "cubed rooted". Like 27. The cube root of this number is 3 therefore 27 is a perfect cube.
Yes because its discriminant is equal to zero
No, 325 is not a perfect square however 324 is a perfect square.
