Answer to Question 1

The two effects that explain the law of demand are the income effect and the substitution effect. The income effect is the change in quantity demanded of a good that results from a change in purchasing power due to a change in the good's price. The substitution effect is the change in quantity demanded of a good that results from the effect of a change in the good's price making the good more or less expensive relative to other goods that are substitutes.

Answer to Question 2

TRUE
