Okay, as far as we know Yui's vision of post 3rd Impact was everyone
joined in a mega-soul, unified into one being living in perfect worlds
with no pain. Yui knew that if it was her son's vision of perfection that
he would bring his mother back into his world if he needed her. So by
leaving, Yui knew that she would always be there for him. However, Yui
also knew that if Shinji rejected the perfect world and the unified soul
that he would no longer need her. He would have developed mentally to a
mature enough state to look after himself. This is of course assuming that
Yui knew a lot, I think that we can assume safely that she does know a lot
of this as she was privy to the Dead Seas Scroll's before Gendo was.

As to people returning? Well Yui herself tells us that those with the will
to live may return to do so. As to Shinji and Asuka populating the world?
Doubtful, let's let them grow up first.
