Go to your Y! Answers Profile and click on the [Edit My] tab.¸.•*´

On the next page click on the [Privacy & Communications] tab.¸.•*´

From there go down where it says "Share my Q&A with:" change that to "Everyone" and do the same where it says "Share my Answers network with:" and also change this to "Everyone", then click the [Save] tab.¸.•*´

(edit) Your question is confusing as to whether you want to hide or unhide your questions. My answer below assumed you want to hide them.

You can hide your Q&A from being visible on your profile from everybody BUT your Contacts. You can't hide your postings from being visible when people are searching elsewhere however.

First and most important step to keep your Q&A private...(from the desktop version) go to My Activities>Edit My Preferences>Privacy & Communications. Under "Sharing and network:" you will see "Share my Q&A with:". Select "My Contacts Only" and click Submit at the bottom of the page.(edit) If you want your questions open select "Everyone" instead of "My Contacts Only".

If you have any Contacts they will be able to see your Q&A, so if you are concerned about privacy I suggest you don't allow them. After you set to My Contacts Only simply don't add users as Contacts (become their fan). You've got quite a few already I see. So you will have to either accept that they can see all of your Q&A or remove them as contacts.

Then for more privacy you need to check your Pulse settings.

From Answers go to My Activity>View Pulse>Settings>Manage updates. Make sure "Share my updates" is not checked. Save at the bottom of the page. This keeps your Q&A from being visible on Pulse and other sites.

You can also manage whether you want Twitter or Facebook linked to your Yahoo! account by going to Settings>Manage my linked accounts.
