I believe the best possible hand, and the ones that follow in descending order, are: AA, KK, QQ, AK (suited or offsuit), JJ, TT, 9♠9♦, A♥Q♥, K♥Q♥, J♥T♥.

It depends. There are several situations where the range changes depending on whether you go all in or fold.

I'm curious about why you mentioned the suits in most of those?

AA, without a doubt, but remember that in poker there will never be an unbeatable hand, as long as the flop, turn, and river all play their role in the development of the hand.

Depends on the street(spot) I am playing. There is no fixed hand. Pre-flop just standards.

First question…is this preflop, after the flop or on the river?
You may want to trap with certain hands at certain points in time…things to consider…early in a tournament, on the bubble or in the money…aggressiveness of opponents…your stack…opponents’ stacks.
AA is an obvious push all in depending on the circumstances…KK and QQ would be next on my list, then AK suited, AQ suited, then the unsuited versions above.

It would be the high cards, but you don't have to be sure, because you can lose against two low pairs or a ladder.

The title
It depends on the situation. I am ready to go all-in even with 7 and 2 if there are suitable cards on the table. When it comes to preflop, even with a pair of aces, I rarely go all-in because I don't see the point in such a game, but again, it all depends on the situation.
