The car's brake system does not care. However it is safer to have the engine off so there are no moving parts while you are reaching into the engine compartment.

OFF, the only fluids you need anything running are:
TRANSMISSION FLUID (AUTOMATIC)
RADIATOR JUICE (ANTI FREEZE )
You can check and fill everything else while the vehicle is off.
Be sure the engine is cool so you don't spill and start a fire.
Be careful, the engine will not stop if it starts eating your necktie.....

It doesnt matter. As long as no one is depressing the the brake pedal.

Off is the way it's normally done.
