Te caigo bien.. when used as a question would be somewhat similar to asking "Do I make a good impression on you?" or "Do you like me?" (in a plutonic way).

Because the verb caer here is conjugated for first person singular (yo) it literally would be translated "Do I fall you well?".. obviously, an idiomatic expression since we don't actually say that in English. For that reason, you may have trouble when using a translator for this phrase.

A way to respond would be "Si, me caes bien." Yeah, I like you as a friend, I find you to be agreeable.

"A el, no le caigo bien." He doesn't like me. "Ella me cae muy bien!" I like her a lot!

Entiendes?

This is very idiomatic usage for caer. In English, I would say in this context it means something like "feels" or "is" or "sits".

Te caigo bien,? => Does it sit well with you? (do you like it?)

If you're asking for a translation, use the translator.
