Please help me with responses!!!!

I �m really confused about what to respond to somebody �s thanks or apology. Could anybody tell me when to say "Not at all", "Never mind", "That �s all right", "You �re welcome", please?
For: " Do you mind if I ask you one or two questions?", which of the following is OK?
A. Not at all. Fire away.
B. That �s quite all right.
Thanks in advance!

Replying when someone says thank you:
You �re welcome, don �t mention it, it �s ok, it �s nothing, it �s my pleasure
When someone makes an apology you can say:
It �s ok, never mind, no need to apologize, that �s alright
For your 2nd question answer A is correct. Here are a few others you can use as well:
go ahead, what is it you want to ask? , what do you need to know? , sure
I hope this helps.
