It’s more polite than ?, and more colloquial. The question will still contain ?.

没错 isn’t particularly regional, that we know of, and can be heard throughout China! Using 没错 makes you sound more positive and active than 是的. And don’t worry, we know how important it is to distinguish local and national lingo so we’d have mentioned it if it was mostly used regionally, as is the case with 不错 (see other comment), for instance! ^^

I’ve never heard 没错 before and I’ve seen these web pages before where they’ll teach you whatever is spoken locally, while not bothering to inform the learner of this important fact.
