people typically won't think 10 years when u say 'over the last few years' for 10 years, more likely you would say 'over the last decade'

The word few would usually mean 3-5, the best way to put it would be 'Over the years' but if you really want to be specific It would be better to say 'over the past decade'

Yes, it depends on how long of a view you are taking.
