Old laptop

I have a busted laptop that has a working screen. I was wondering if I could use the screen as a monitor for my desktop PC, since the laptop has a VGA port on the side.

No the vga port is vga out so you can use a desktop monitor with the laptop.

Well you could probably salvage the screen and keyboard, etc and sell it on Ebay.

If the batteries are small enough, use them in a portable project
