It is always better to tell the truth and state what you saw. I would not guess about what you did not see. If you do not cooperate, they can subpoena you to testify, so it is better to cooperate.

Not necessarily, but just imagine you in the same situation.

Yes, unless it will incriminate yourself, in which you can plead the 5th amendment.
