Will/Would vs Shall to suggest.

Can I substitute SHALL in "Shall I help you with your bags" for WILL "Will I help you with your bags" or WOULD "Would I help you with your bags"?

No, neither of those are possible. You can use any of these: Can/Could/May/Might/Shall I help you with your bags? I have listed them in rough descending order of popularity.
