Oh Yes I think 이요 is used when (almost) only answering. And when short answering 이요 is more used than 이에요!

Umm.. 셋이요 is usually used at shouting situation(?) more. Like .. Ex. (In restaurant, entering) how many? 3~! / teacher says, what is the answer? Students:3! / but I think both can be used at normal answering situations. / 이에요 can be used in any sentence.(answer or not)

@lurkinpop7 Thank you for answering! ^^
I actually saw it on my Korean lesson book. There's a dialog between two characters:
A: 민호 씨, 가족이 몇 명이에요?
B: 셋이요. 아버지, 저, 여동생이 있어요.
And I was curious why he said "셋이요" instead of "셋이에요". That's nice to know! ^^

+ shouting answer → short answer (이요). Now I think this is more proper!😊
