I’m most likely cbet on flop already bigger. At least half pot, because BB is a passive player and I don’t think he will ever fold on a 2bb bet in a pot of almost 6bb. Also is a check behind a good option against him with your bottom pair and straight draw to control the pot in position, because is difficult to let him fold a better hand and I don’t think you have a value bet here.

As played is turn and river indeed better to bet more for value. I don’t think he fold to often on bigger bets and is also easier to get all your chips in the middle. Also a bigger Cbet helps with that.

On his shove on river I’m most likely folding. It’s likely he shoving with a flush and straight here. So you’re spitting in best case.
