depends on server.

Max size teams and minimum?

10v10 is what most public servers run on, 8v8 is less common but still very much viable
6v6 is used in more competitive play and tournaments

tho there is a server or two that run an insane arcade mode with like 24vs24 or so

Do you know any small maps for 5v5 online?
I wana play with bunch of friends, but 10v10 is too big for us. And playing 10v10 maps as 5v5 leaves game too empty.

I think all the vanilla maps work pretty fine in 5v5 honestly its not a big deal! guessing you played enough already to know marines get phase gates, and aliens get tunnels so you can fast travel around the map after the first few minutes of gameplay. (if they dont get killed ofc which is usually one of the aliens win conditions. Or lose conditions when the gate gets rushed outside of their base.

The real deal for pubs is 8v8 and was the usual standard in the early years. Comp standard was and is 6v6.

Then public server owners started bloating player counts up to 12v12 (uwe capped it at 10v10 years later) only so that their servers wouldn't die as easily when people left. So right now almost everything (except one server) is 10v10 which is an abortion, an affront to god, an abomination, an alteration of the holy natural order, which shall be purged by holy fire.
