Can 205 70 15 tire replace a 195 65 15 tire?

No, absolutely not. This is a terrible swap as the 205 tire will be 5% larger in overall diameter than the 195 tire. Your speedometer will read 57 mph at a true 60 mph. Power, ride, handling, braking, and fuel mileage will be adversely effected. If you wish to go to a 70 series tire then go to a 185/70-15. My advice is to stick with the OEM size.

What is the difference between 195 65 R15 tires and 205 60 R15 tires?

They are pretty close in overall diameter as the 205 will be .3" smaller. Your speedometer will be .7 mph fast with the 205. Your engine will turn an additional 10.1 RPMs every mile driven with the 205. The 205 is a good swap if you want a wider tire.
