There is a minor difference between contract and agreement. The outline of a contract is more formally presented than the terms laid out in an agreement. A contract contains the obligations and authority that the court has to enforce while the agreement is a less formal version of the two parties obligations.

A minor does not have the absolute right to void a contract. As a general rule, contracts made by minors are voidable by the minor at any time up until the minor affirms the contract after reaching majority or until a reasonable times after reaching majority. There are cases where a minor can be held liable for his/her actions if at the time the contract was entered they acted in a responsible and adult-like that proves they were of a capacity to understand the contract. However, the burdon to prove that the minor was actually of capacity falls on the other parties in the contract.

Yes, in general, if money is paid under a void contract it must be returned.

The minor may be required to return anything of value received under the voided contract.
No. Anyone can sign a contract. If you are under 18, there are certain cases where you cannot be compelled to perform your obligations under the contract.

A person of any age can be contractually liable, but for minors, the liability can be escapable. A minor may enter a contract, and as a minor, can freely void the contract. However the contract must be totally voided, or the minor will be held liable. As an example, a child cannot enter a contract in which he receives material goods, and then void the contract and keep the goods without keeping up to his end of the contract. He must return the goods in that case, to be legally allowed to void the contract. The laws though can vary from country to country, and also the definition of a minor can differ.
