Everything is considered a word. However, AIN'T isn't considered a formal contraction of is not or am not or are not. Accordingly, when you use ain't it means you're uneducated. So always remember never to use ain't in formal English specially if you want to impress or earn points. You don't believe me? Although I know this from previous experiences as a student and teacher, I still would like you to visit these links: www.wsu.edu/~brians/errors/ain't.html,

I don't know about ANY circumstances. At one time it would've been "ain't", but nowadays I would say "ain't" is colloquial (as opposed to formal) but I wouldn't say NEVER correct.

I'll say A, however I believe I heard that "ain't" is now in the dictionary as a slang.

Don't like it though.

ain't.

It's an improper contraction for the words "am not", sometimes takes the place of "isn't" and "aren't" as well.
