๐ต is an exaggerated, cartoon-style reaction. The X eyes come from comics, where a character who is knocked out or dead gets crossed-out eyes. In chats it covers three main feelings: total shock ("I can't believe this"), total exhaustion (after work, a trip or a workout), and feeling sick or dizzy. The tone is usually dramatic but light. It is stronger than ๐ฎ, which is simple surprise. It differs from ๐, which people mostly use for "I'm dead from laughing." ๐ต is more about being overwhelmed or wiped out than about laughter.
It often reacts to surprising news or a huge price, meaning "I'm shocked." It is also a quick way to say you are completely drained.
In casual work chats it means overwhelmed or tired, for example after a long meeting or a big deadline. It is informal, so keep it to teammates you know well.
People send it to pretend they are shocked or fainting over something small, like a friend actually replying on time.

In a joking way, yes. It shows someone knocked out or "dead" from shock or tiredness, not real death, so it is rarely used for serious news.
Match the reason. If they are tired, tell them to rest, and if they are shocked by news, ask for the details or react with ๐ฎ or ๐คฏ.
Mostly mildly negative, since it shows being overwhelmed, drained or sick. It can also be neutral or funny when used for big surprises.
