You should not and you do not have to answer any question from a police officer. They cannot arrest for refusing to answer any question. Nor do you have to consent to any search. If an officer asks to search you, you should say "I do not consent." If they search you anyway, do not fight them but call an attorney as soon as possible.
I see from your zip code that you are in the Bay Area. If you have any questions or if you have trouble with the police feel free to call me at 415-336-7534.
