In limit, it's a clear raise, whether suited or offsuit.

In NL, it depends. AQo UTG (full ring) isn't a tremendously valuable hand no matter how you play it in NL. Limping (with the intention of calling a raise from a normal player, and folding to a raise from a passive player) is a reasonable play in many games.

It depends on how you want to play poker. Limping and calling a raise from a loose player is alright but i usually raise (usually 3 x BB). Folding is also not bad play but if you only ever raise UTG with QQ+/AK you become too predictable. AQ, while reasonable, helps balance your play. (This doesn't matter in low limits)

On a ten ring utg id probably just call hoping to see a cheap flop - 80% id call a raise depending what player raised it.

Although im sure thats not the general correct stratiegic play lol

In a 10 player table I think it´s a fold. Limping and calling is no good because you´ll find yourself OOP too often.
