People say "It depends" when they don't know what the favour is. If they say yes, and then you say "Pay off my car loan," they probably will regret saying yes.

Because they don't want to promise something they can't deliver. If they say yes, and then you ask for $1000, what can they do. So saying "It depends" is a reasonable answer.

Well... you can either say yes or no. It all comes down to whether or not you have feelings towards the person that asked you out - and if you do, then you probably want to say yes. However, on the other hand, if you don't, then it would be smart to say no.
