Dependent taxes

My wife and I have an 18 year old son in college.   We provide 100% of his support.  In 2025 he earned $300 from one summer job and an additional $375 from a second job.  No taxes were withheld.  That was his total earned income.   Both were reported on 1099s.   1.  Can we still claim him as a dependent?  does he have to file a tax return?  3.  Can he use the earned income to fund his ROTH IRA?
