It seems to me that it depends on the question?

- questions about unspecific things or a person such as "what/who is it?" : C'est + article/possessive adjectives + noun

- questions about general things such as "what do you think about / do you like (general stuff)?" : C'est + adjectives

- questions about specific things or a person such as "where is it / how do you like it?" : Il/elle est + adjectives

This question relates to:French lesson ""C'est" vs "Il/Elle est" to say it is/she is/he is in French"

I think it depends on whether if the speaker is aware of the thing they are asking. If the thing or a person being questioned is clear and specific you use il/ell and if it's not clear and unspecific you say ce?
