Can I say 'Yes, it is.' to positively reply to 'Is this your sister?'? Or should I say 'Yes, she is.'? And what about the negative reply?

"Yes, she is" or "Yes, she/that/this is my sister" negative reply; "No, she/that/this is not my sister" "No, she isn't" You wouldn't say 'yes IT is' because then you're not talking about a person but an object. :)
