Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

If the rate of inflation is constant at 5 percent per year, then the price level is rising, but the unemployment rate should remain constant, as shown in the graph below (as long as inflation is at 5 percent, the unemployment rate does not change). If inflation is 0 percent, then the Phillips curve would predict that unemployment will be higher than it was when inflation was 5 percent (assuming no change in inflation expectations), but as long as inflation is constant at 5 percent, there will be no change in the unemployment rate.
