As long as the sink/worktop is bang level and you are not left with silly cuts anywhere, yes.

hello and welcome to the forum after briefly reading your brief question i would say yes Best of luck any more questions please do ask

Yep full tile if possible from the worktop if it's level and not leave a slither of a cut under the wall units or window.

Main thing is to always mark out everywhere that your going to tile, so you know where and what cuts your going to have everywhere.

that depends on the size of your tile, level of the bench, window height and overhead cupboards height

If your worktop isn't level, TRY full tile at the lowest end and nibble off the bottom of them at the higher point rather than starting full at the high and leaving a gap (at least if it's unlevel and of decent length).
