Technically we are all sinners, so the real question is does God answer any body's prayers.
I'm on the fence on that one, but I lean towards "no".
When we get the result we want, well then God has answered our prayers. When we don't, well God had other wishes for us.
I find that rather squishy rationalization.
And I do believe in God. I just still don't think we understand it, at probably never will. At least on this place of existence.

Absolutely, God is a forgiving, loving God who knows that we humans are not perfect. God is compassionate, and His love for all the children He created is everlasting and infinite.
God always answers ones prayers but not always in the way the person wants. He will not answer prayers that could cause the person to fall into danger or the hands of the evil one.

Jesus dined with sinners. Zaccheus for example, among many others. If this is true, then I'm sure God answers some sinners' prayers.

God always hears and prayer always helps, and we're all sinners. God told me this personally in a dream. So keep praying! Thank God for your blessings, we all have some, and keep praying. It ALWAYS HELPS! You need a prayer from me, I'll pray for you too.

God's love is unconditional. He hears your prayers, but for Him to answer, would require a child like faith. We are all sinners, 'for all have come short of the glory of God'. But we can be forgiven if we repent. Forgiveness is His wish for you and I.

Of course he does. EVERYONE is a sinner, come on.
But obviously he doesn't answer all of them. Praying for someone you don't care for to die is not the type of prayer that would be answered. Or I'd hope not anyway.

Sure, He answers everyones prayers. Yet, in all truth, sometimes the answer is no, or not right now, or any variety of answers. Some of the things we ask for might even make Him smile, or laugh, not necessarily in sarcasm or belittling, but in awe and amazement.

More than saints because if there is a God then he/she pays close attention to the souls who cant live rightly. The non-sinners-there are none!
