Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Significant does not mean important in the usual sense. Rather, computations indicate the effect was unlikely to have been a product of chance factors. For example, if probability is 5 or less, the correlation is believable and, therefore, statistically significant. But it might only account for a small fraction of the behavior and may, therefore, be relatively unimportant in a practical sense.
