Answer to Question 1

Disagree. A positive statement is one that is either descriptive or makes a prediction of the type if A, then B. A descriptive statement can be false. For example, the statement, It is raining today, may be either true or false. A prediction can also be false. A normative statement cannot appeal to evidence.
