Raise bigger PF.

Eh, I think your raise size is fine pf. You really don't want to go to war if overcards flop and a bet of 60 is very easy to get away from.

That said, I'm probly limping and playing this for set value, but that definitely might be too weak tight of me, especially against only a limper and two blinds. However, don't forget that with your position you can still play poker on an all undercards flop or if it gets checked around to you.

After an UTG limper, I probably just call, although I don't think a raise is terrible. I would have folded the flop too, even though it's possible villain has something like 99, putting you on AK. With deeper stacks I might raise the flop, but on Party I'm out, peace.

I can't understand why he would bet a Qxx unco-ordinated rainbow flop with a Q, personally. Then again this is an $11 so they're donks.

Anyway, I raise 75 pf. I think a fold at this level on the flop is fine, but at a higher level, probably not.
