Are you sure?

Hi.

What is the answer of are you sure? I was taught that positive should be used, but I see yes is widely used.

I would be grateful if native speakers could tell me which one is used in everyday English?

Ex. Are you sure? Positive/yes

Thanks

Hi,

'Yes, I am'.

I don't say 'Positive' much.
