Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

Dwarf planets are objects in the solar system that are in orbit around the Sun and are massive enough that their own gravity makes them spherical, but no so massive that they have cleared out all other objects in their orbit. So, for example, moons in orbit around a planet such as Triton around Neptune do not qualify, irregularly shaped asteroids and small comets do not qualify, but Pluto and Eris do fit this new designation.
