In many ways, yes. When you trade, you take something that has actual value to you, and you directly exchange it for something else that has value to you, usually to the mutual benefit of both parties. What you each have is needed or strongly desired by the other. Money is too far removed from the actual object that has value. "Dollars" float through thin air at light-speed, and their meaning is getting lost. The problem with trade is mostly a matter of convenience. I just ate a perfectly ripe pear. If I wanted to get another one by direct trade, how would I do that? There are too many people, and too many things from too far away, to make trade an everyday experience.

Which is better Trade Surplus or Trade Deficit Why?
This is really like asking whether a broken arm or a broken leg is better. Trade deficits are bad, m'kay? If you have one, you have to borrow money to pay for the things you import (because you get money by selling goods to other countries), your citizens don't have as much work as they could, and another country gets rich at your expense. A trade surplus is bad too. If you have one, the country you have it with might implement protective tariffs to slow down your exports and encourage its countrymen to start factories to make the things you're exporting to them. The ideal situation is balanced trade--importing no more than you export.
