Does this sentence mean that the food is not tasty or that the food has gone bad?
could mean either not tasty or not good.
If you wanna specify, the term for tasty is "Swaadisht".
gone bad will translate to "Kharab ho gaya hai"
Kharab ho gaya is generally used for stale or spoiled food but however this is acceptable. Just for extra knowledge kharab is not a hindi word but is a urdu derived word, to replace it and as a native speaker I would recommend you to use ganda( bad) or accha nahi(not good)
Really? you don't say! (sarcasm)
"food gone bad" means food has become stale or rotten or moldy.
Also, Duo is clearly teaching colloquial Hindi, not shuddh Hindi. Kharab is a perfectly acceptable word in Colloquial Hindi.
I am also a native speaker.
"Yaha khanacha nahi hai." I've been trying to do these by listening first without looking then trying to type out what I think it is before looking at the choices. This one spoken so quickly threw me off at first!

Sometimes the nehi comes at the end with a hei. And dometimes it comes before the word negated, without the hei at the end. What is the rule here?

नहीं comes with the verb, either before it, or—for emphasis—after the main verb and before है/हैं.
IF there is another verb, the है/हैं MAY be omitted.
