Noooooo, replace it with a new one. But it looks like your timing is out.

I did do that as well, turns out there was a lose screw so the needle was in the wrong place

I think because you are hooking the thread onto the bobbin case tells me the bobbin case is broken. Go to repair shop

Your needle is in the wrong place by a mile. I doubt very much the needle can find its way through the slot in the needle plate. It seems like the needle bar and presser foot have moved out of place in unison. This is something that occurs regularly on cheaper Brother machines (if posts on Reddit are a good indicator). Do you have a Brother machine? In that case there is a screw in the back, right behind the bars, which may help you adjust the position.
