Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

An ideal response would be:
Most legislators like to consider themselves trustees of their constituents, claiming to rely on their own conscience or on their considered judgments in making decisions. Legislators who view themselves as delegates, by contrast, adhere more closely to instructions from their constituents. Not surprisingly, the trustee role is not only more popular among legislators, but it is also easier and more realistic to practice.
