When stating whether they attract or repel, can you just say because the current is in the same direction/opposite, or do you have to explain why?, ie the magnetic flux density being less between the wires when flowing in the same direction thus they attract etc

what lol? magnetic flux density being less? Haven't heard of that
you can see it via the right hand palm rule. They attract when in the same direction. Depends on the question, if its a 2 marker. saying same direction--> attract is enough.
