its more or less until you achieve what you want, some people will want to get bigger than others.
you could also do a progressive gains dealio, where you stay leaner and add muscle at the same time. this is much harder and slower, and takes alot of dedication to diet and training.

depends on your calories. if, with the cardio, you cut too much there is a chance that you will lose muscle, but if you find a good balance, you can maximize fat loss with little or no muscle loss. dont expect to make strength gains during cutting, however, as you will be taking in a deficit of calories which won't be able to support muscle growth.
