Setting the home point only marks the longitude and latitude position. It does not affect the altitude.Are you setting the home point when aircraft is in the air?

The usual thing to do when your altitude numbers are out is the recalibrate the IMU.This is why, When I ascend the numbers start minus, I could be at least 100ft but its telling me I'm only at 35ft, and when descending its the same, when I finally land, the numbers are telling me I'm minus 45ft.
No, don't do it indoors unless you're in an unheated, cold room/building. I made the mistake of doing it at room temp, and now it takes 2-5 minutes for the IMU to "Warm up" when I power it up.The usual thing to do when your altitude numbers are out is the recalibrate the IMU.
Do it indoors on a perfectly level surface.
The important thing is to do it on a level surface and these are easier to find indoors.No, don't do it indoors unless you're in an unheated, cold room/building. I made the mistake of doing it at room temp, and now it takes 2-5 minutes for the IMU to "Warm up" when I power it up.
Well yeah, but in my opinion that's a very minor advantage. It's trivial to create a level surface with a level. If a drone enthusiast doesn't have one, s/he should simply go out and buy one for this purpose.The important thing is to do it on a level surface and these are easier to find indoors.
