Be a touch disturbed following Yankee? Absolutely! (3,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

you betcha

'absolutely' is the definition.
(both can be used to answer 'yes')

'be a touch disturbed following yankee?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'be' is within the answer.
'a' is present in the answer.
an anagram of 'touch' is 'outch' which is within the remaining letters.
'yankee?' could be 'y' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.) and 'y' is found within the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

I've seen this clue in The Times.
