Please read litterature you may find on Bluetooth core specification. Your questions are all good, but I can't explain the details to your, you need to read up on the Bluetooth core specification.

It's out of band exchange of key, in this case over NFC. This have very short range, so any attacker would need to be very close.

Hi,

What about BLE connection with a PC, via NFC?

What is the meaning of MITM configuration in this case?

Thanks!

MITM require the user to actively input a passkey that is displayed on the peer device. Thereby it is not possible for a man in the middle (MITM) attack. You can refer to the bluetooth core spec for more information about the various security modes and levels.
