A solar system consists of a star and other objects orbiting the star, so obviously the solar system is larger. Some very large stars could be bigger than the solar system of another small star.

No, a star is typically much larger and more massive than a solar system. A solar system is a smaller system that consists of a star and all the objects that orbit around it, such as planets, moons, asteroids, and comets.

No. The largest star yet discovered is VY Canis Major. It's diameter falls roughly within the orbit of Saturn. Cosmologist believe (although this could change tomorrow) that stars likely cannot be much larger. VY CMaj is near the end of it's life cycle. While it is producing an atmosphere containing elements that scientists have not known the source of, and is one of the most luminous objects in the Milky Way, cosmologically speaking, it will not exist much longer.
