That would depend on what the questions are, what statute or case law makes them illegal, and who would be doing the doing something about it.
A labor law attorney could provide good advice, depending on which side of the fence you're on in this situation. There's not enough info in your question to provide a specific answer. Consult with an attorney in your area for advice.

You could refuse to answer, and risk not getting an offer. Only a few things are 'illegal' to ask, including pregnancy status and intention, AIDS status, sexual orientation, arrest without conviction records, etc. If you can prove what you allege, and are willing to pursue litigation over it if you are denied a job because of your refusal, then feel free to contact me.
