No, Macbeth is not a static character, he's actually the main dynamic character in the play. A static character does not change through out the story. I'd say Banquo, Macduff, and Malcolm are static characters because they don't change their views or traits.

Yes, characters can change from the begging of the story to the end. Some days a character can be static, and some days they can be dynamic. Or events occurring can make them be both.Yes a character can be both static and dynamic as described above, but I cannot see how they could be both at the same time. They can be static for a while then become dynamic for a bit while they undergo some change or growth and then become static again.

A static character does not undergo significant change or growth throughout the story. They often maintain the same beliefs, behaviors, and traits from the beginning to the end. Their purpose is usually to provide stability or serve as a foil for the dynamic characters who do experience significant change.
Katniss is brave, clever, compassionate, strong (mentally and physically), and loyal. There are way more but those are just a few. I thought you meant character traits but if you are talking about static and dynamic characters, I think Katniss is a dynamic character.

Characters can be classified in various ways, such as by their role in the story (protagonist, antagonist, side character), their personality traits (brave, cunning, loyal), or their character arc (static, dynamic, round, flat). These classifications help readers understand the character's function and development within the narrative.
A dynamic character is a character who learns things throughout the story, and who changes. A static character is just the opposite; a character whit less traits, and does not change much throughout the story.
A flat character is a type of character that exhibits only one or two qualities or traits and is less developed or dynamic compared to round characters. Flat characters are often static and serve a specific role or function within a story, without much depth or complexity.
