Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

It tells you that most people are risk averse. They are unwilling to take a risk because the costs of losing in terms of their well-being or utility exceed the gains of possibly winning. Winning in this case is defined as one's house not catching fire. Losing is when it burns without having purchased fire insurance.
