Hi,
Lets say someone clicks a malicious link on his/her phone..
He/she is connected to their home WiFi, they have Private connection turned on,
therefore, will it spread to their PC?

Thanks :)

I don't see how, iOS is pretty secure. Of course, nothing is 100%. Then there is also rampant stupidity. Forward that e-mail with the invoice for a product you never ordered to begin with to another account and open it there. Voilà, spread via iPhone and lack of brain cells, just like that.
 
Its really difficult to get malware in iOS because of its very closed nature and since it doesn't allow to do anything. If some good hacker tries to hack you, maybe, but chance of that happening is very low. But as @Fritz pointed out, there's no cure to stupidity. People falling for easy scams and using easy passwords(remember fappenings?).
