Answer to Question 1

Frank had a life estate interest in property X. Frank could use and enjoy the property as long as the measuring-life individual still lived. Once the person whose life is the measuring life dies, Frank's interest in the property ceases. Frank has no interest remaining in property X to transfer to Samantha.
An estate in fee simple lasts forever and is alienable by will. Frank may freely will his interest in property Y to Samantha.

Answer to Question 2

C
