Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Lenders would be more likely to grant mortgages if they intended to resell the mortgages than if they intended to hold them. Reselling reduces the risk of granting mortgages because lenders no longer need to worry that borrowers will default on their mortgage loans.
