On my Subaru the only thing that could be adjusted was the toe in.

Can all three adjustments (toe in camber and caster) be adjusted on the Yaris?

"Alignment" is possibly a scam. You might be paying for nothing.

Many modern cars only have front toe adjust. Toe is what will shred tires the fastest. It is also the most likely to get knocked out of spec. To give an idea of allowable toe angles, you are typically looking at less than +/-0.20° total toe. As in, if your tires are not straight by 0.50° you will eat tires. Typically inside edge wear.
Most cars with independent rear suspension have toe adjust and sometimes camber adjust.

The Yaris is just front toe adjust unless camber bolts are installed.

Cheers.
