The principal use of the simple present is to refer to an action or event that takes place habitually, but with the verb "to be" the simple present tense also refers to a present or general state, whether temporary, permanent or habitual.
- I am happy.
- She is helpful.
The verb to be in the simple present can be also used to refer to something that is true at the present moment.
- She is 20 years old.
- He is a student.
Subject and verb change their position in statement and question.
We always use the short answer, not only Yes or No.
NOTE:
If the answer is Yes, we always use the long form. → Example: Yes, I am.
If the answer is No, we either use the long or the contracted form (short form). → Example: No, I am not → No, I'm not.
