When using a re-writable CD, must it be erased before re-recording?

Unless you want to delete every file, one-by-one, yes!

There is an exception to total erasure, if packet writing (UDF) is being
used - not available via the built-in XP burning utility.
With this method of writing, the disk is first formatted, then it acts
similar to a large floppy. See...

If you are not doing a "Multi-Session" CD of a packet-writing (UDF) like
InCD/Drag to Disk/DLA, then YES!!!!!!!!

But can I right-over an existing file or must I erase the existing file first?

With UDF, you will be prompted, if you attempt to write a file with an
existing file name.

Suppose the file name is different. Can I write over an existing file which
has a different file name or must I erase the existing file first?

If the names are different then the first will not be overwritten. If you want to remove the one on
the disk it must be erased first.
