When a bullet is of different color it means that its a critical shot. A critical shot does more damage then a normal one and you never know when you are going to get one.

The color the rocket takes is the color of the player's team that shot it.

Indeed. Crit rockets are especially tough, since the regular rocket does a lot of damage already. The only things a crit rocket won't kill on direct impact is a full health heavy or fully buffed soldier, (according to the wiki)

Note that sentry guns won't crit, and the spy's knife and the sniper rifle get crits by backstabbing and headshotting, respectively.

Just for confirmation, a crit rocket's blast radius is bigger than a normal rocket right?

I don't know, but probably it just seems bigger because the damage falloff is less so everything in the radius tends to die.
