Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

The intercept term b0 of -0.03 is the estimated milk consumption in quarts per week given that the family's weekly income is 0 dollars and there are 0 members in the family. This is likely extrapolating beyond the observed data series and is not a useful interpretation.
