J'étais vs. J'ai été

Is there a difference in meaning between "J'ai été là pendant quarante-cinq minutes" vs. "J'étais là pendant quarante-cinq minutes"?  My inclination was to use passé composé because it was an action that happened and ended, but I see the latter sentence in the lesson example.  Can someone please explain the difference?

Why is this not in the subjunctive form?C'est vrai qu'il est un peu nul. Since this is an opinion wouldn't it be "qu'il soit un peu nul."

Basic question, in English we say "big brother", I was told "grand frère" was wrong and it should be "frère plus agé" or "vieux frère?? Thank you."
