This is about Villain's 20th hand at the table, hasn't done much/anything so far, has folded pretty much everything and looks like a standard multi-tabling TAG.

What's the best line here?

Oh yes, my bets are weak, but he probably doesn't have much and I want to milk some value at least.

Um, as played, I think I call the flop and get to showdown cheaply, or ditch it if he wanted to play for stacks.

If it's folded to the button it doesn't matter whether there are 10 people at the table or 5, the fact it's a 10-seater game makes no difference.

Raise more PF.

Make it closer to pot on the flop, like 9 or 10.

I think this just makes the hand easier to play, ie. in this instance, it's more possible he's raising with weaker hands because your bet looks so weak.

If everyone has folded to the hijack in a 10 seated game, the likelihood that one of the remaining players holds a high cards is better than that of utg/co in a 5 seated game. Obviously tendencies are more important, though.
