hyperref.

You can just use \label and \ref to insert hyperlinks. You can label a 
frame and insert a link to that frame from your "Questions"-slide.

\documentclass{beamer}
\usepackage{hyperref}

\begin{document}

\begin{frame}[label=target]
  \frametitle{Target slide}
  Foo.
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}
  \frametitle{Source slide}
  \hyperlink{target}{\beamerbutton{Jump to target slide}}
\end{frame}

\end{document}
