A:Genesis 9:11: "And the LORD God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou? And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself. And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?"

Adam had hidden from God who, expecting to see Adam as he walked through the Garden, called out to see where Adam was. When Adam said he was hiding because he now realised he was naked, God guessed that Adam had eaten the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge.

Did God ask Eve a question?

Yes. In Genesis 3, after Adam and Eve sinned, God asked Adam several questions, with the final result that Adam passed the buck off to Eve. In Genesis 3:13, God then asks Eve, "What is this you have done?" (NASB). As far as I know, this is the only question God asked specifically of Eve.

What does thee thy and thou mean?

Thee is the dative/accusative (or "objective") case of the obsolete second person singular pronoun thou, which has been replaced, except in certain archaic usages, by the plural form, you.If the above very correct definition was a bit hard to understand, simply put, thee means you. Thee means you only in the singular. It is never used for the plural. For an archaic effect in the plural, ye may be used.
