Answer to Question 1

A decrease in aggregate demand will not result in a lower inflation rate in the short run if there is no change in the price level as a result of the decrease in aggregate demand. If, for example, aggregate supply decreases and potential GDP decreases at the same time that aggregate demand is decreasing, the inflation rate may remain unchanged.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE
