Answer to Question 1

True

Answer to Question 2

Answer: The door-in-the-face technique works by asking for a large favor and then, when the first favor is rejected, retreating to a smaller favor. This second request is typically accepted because the concession seems like a favor done for the influence target. Thus, this technique capitalizes on the reciprocity norm.
