Answer to Question 1

A real depreciation will cause NX to rise. The rise in NX will cause an increase in demand. As demand rises, Y will increase causing a rise in C and S. As Y increases, imports will increase as well. As shown in the text, the increase in imports will be less than the rise in exports. So, NX will be higher.

Answer to Question 2

C
