I'll take that.
A man is interviewing a homeless guy, at some point in the interview the homeless guy says that before living on the streets they were living in their car implying that they were not homeless then, in response the man says: "I'll argue mobile homeless is still homeless", then the homeless guy replies: "I'll take that".
What does "I'll take that" mean here?
Does it mean the same as "fair enough"?

It's a bit ambiguous. You'd need to know the tone of voice of the homeless man to be sure of the meaning.
So it could mean what you are saying, but equally it could be saying almost the opposite with the homeless man actually meaning "I'd prefer anyday being homeless in a car than homeless on the streets !!"
This 2nd more negative interpretation is more what I think was meant. But like I said you'd need to know the tone and way it was said to be sure.

It means you agree. You accept the argument as valid.
