Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

The official settlements account is the record of the change in a country's official reserves. U.S. official reserves are the U.S. government's holdings of foreign currency. If the U.S. official reserves increases, the official settlements account balance is negative. The reason the official settlements account decreases is that holding foreign money is similar to investing abroad insofar as both buying foreign money and buying foreign assets (that is, investing abroad) use (rather than acquire) U.S. dollars.
