Hi,
1. Can you give me a synonym for 'You are right'.
You are correct.

(less formally)
You're (absolutely) spot on!

2. Are "clean up" and "clear up" synonymous?
They can be.
e.g.
They need to clean/clear up this mess.

but not always
e.g.
They need to clear [STRIKE]/clean[/STRIKE] up the misunderstanding.
They need to clean [STRIKE]/clear[/STRIKE] up their act.
 
That works, in AmE.
