Answer

Hi Bambang, both sentences are correct. In this context there is no difference. It would be better to look at another example to see the difference between the two.

Question: Do you go to the store?
Answer: Of course. I go to the store when I need to buy something.

Question: Are you going to the store? (right now)
Answer: Yes, I am on my way to the store now. OR - No, I don't have time to go to the store today.

The two tenses you are asking about are the present simple and the present continuous. If you search for "the difference between the present perfect and the present continuous" you will find lots of lessons and explanations.

Answer

Both are correct, they are just two different ways of asking the same question. Both are suitable in everyday conversations. Similar to "How are you?" and "Is everything going well?" In these examples, I am asking the same thing but in two different ways.
