Not directly. You wouldn't say 'أنت طيبة' to mean 'You are okay' (that means 'You are kind'). Use it for 'situations' or 'affairs'.

It's a bit casual. Better to say 'كل شيء يسير بشكل جيد' (Everything is going well) in a very formal interview.

You could say 'الأمور معقدة' (Things are complicated) or 'الأمور ليست بخير' (Things are not well).

Because 'Al-umoor' is a non-human plural, and in Arabic, these are treated as feminine singular.

Yes, it's often used to mean 'no complaints' or 'it's fine'.

Very similar, but 'Tamam' is more like 'Perfect/Complete', while 'Tayyiba' is more like 'Good/Wholesome'.

It's a heavy 'T'. Press your tongue against the roof of your mouth and release with a duller sound than a normal 'T'.

No, that's a common grammar mistake. It must be 'tayyiba'.

Yes, many Khaleeji pop songs use it to describe a happy life or a good relationship.
