Why do water molecules have bent shape and carbon dioxide molecules have a linear shape?

In a water molecule, there are two lone pairs of electrons connected to the oxygen. The lone pairs push the hydrogen atoms, creating a bent shape. In CO2, however, there are two double bonds and no lone electrons on the central atom, hence the molecule has a linear shape.

Are all water molecules bent?

Yes; all water molecules are bent. The H-O-H bonding of the three atoms is never in a straight line. Unfortunately, you need to know some Qantum Mechanics to understand why. More unfortunately, I don't.
