Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

The statement is false. The monopolist cannot choose both the price and quantity. The monopolist has some market power and therefore has some ability to affect market price but it does not control the demand curve. If the monopolist sets a price, the quantity sold will be indicated by the demand curve.
