I've heard that volunteer potatoes or those that are not harvested can
cause problems such as blight. This is a problem for farmers, but it
may not be a concern for casual home growers?

However, I noticed that the potato plants above the ground blossom

then bear small fruits about the size of cherry tomatoes, and these
fruits have small seeds in them.

What if we plant these seeds into the soil? Will they grow into
potatoes?

Yes. That is how new varieties of potatoes are bred.

By the way, are these fruits edible?

I wouldn't.
