Answer to Question 1

TRUE
Indirect quotations, which are restatements of a person's exact words introduced by the word
that, are not enclosed in quotation marks. Direct quotations are always enclosed in quotation
marks.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE
When a dash is used to set off words within a sentence, a semicolon does not follow the dash.
No punctuation ever follows a dash. Dashes are used to set off words at the end of a sentence
or within a sentence.
