Type your answer here... The pronoun does not agree with its antecedent in number.
The 'error' is the plural possessive adjective 'their' takes the place of the singular indefinite pronoun 'everybody'.Normally, a pronoun must agree with its antecedent in number (singular or plural).

Neither, actually. "Chairman" is completely acceptable as a gender-neutral title. The "man" component of the word "chairman" is not referring to the male gender, but rather to a human. Despite its seemingly politically incorrect nature, "chairman" is the grammatically correct term.
This usage has a long history for the designation of a third person singular of unspecified gender. That makes it preferable, in my opinion, to the ugly and awkward "he-or-she, his-or-her" which is only a recent political over-correction. Politics trumps reason, though, and so "they" is not acceptable in formal writing.

No, "It's a baby" is not grammatically correct. The contraction "it's" is a combination of "it" and "is" or "it" and "has," but "baby" is a noun and requires a verb to complete the sentence. It should be written as "It's a baby crying" or "It's a baby girl."
