Yes you are sweetie!
If your BMI is under 18.5 you are underweight. Your BMI is 18.3
Mm time to get some meat on your bones
You should be about 105 Lbs
Doctors find you more healthy if you are over 19.2

No. Not for your age a height. When I was 14 I weighed 80lb and when my mom got married at 19 she weighed 90lb. Your fine. :)
