a) Again, no. Only what is expressly shared by a user is shared among the family.
b) Send/copy/transfer the originals to the other user (AirDrop, flash drive, file share, mail, etc), or add the photos to the shared family album, or create and populate albums within the shared family album.
c) iCloud+ device backups are also kept private to each user, though the iCloud+ storage can be pooled among family members.

2 quick follow-up questions:
a) So if a family member has access to my iCloud+ subscription, and she backs up her iPhone using storage space in my iCloud+ account, do I get access to her photos? If not, can she give me permission to access them?
b) how do I give her access to my photos which have been backed up on my iCloud acct?
Thx very much!
Beyond what you have explicitly shared—such as a shared photo album—no.
Thank you!
