Yes, the opposite is worse off. "You will be worse off if you date that person" - you will have difficulty if you date that person

"As you have a cold, you would be better off staying at home today" - you should stay at home today
"He would be better off if he studied harder and got a good job" - He would be in a better financial situation - have more money

From my understanding, it means in a better condition or place or situation.
Or a suggestion to change a situation maybe?
For example: "Since you are so unhappy in your current job, you would be better off getting a new job that you enjoy somewhere else."
For worst off, I believe it means you are in a worse position than before. Like :
"You are worst-off financially now than when you started your business"
