Some / Any

Hello to dear teachers
I have a problem with the usage of ¨some¨and ¨any¨ in questions. I know that we can use both in questions but what is the difference…can I say ¨Do you want some tea¨ or ¨Do you want ant tea¨ or Do you have any paper¨or ¨Do you have some paper¨…

In questions, using 'some' makes the invitation more inviting; the speaker expects that the response will be in the affirmative.
