Answer to Question 1

F
Ratio scales have an absolute zero. This is what distinguishes a ratio scale from an interval scale because zero in a ratio scale has meaning in that it represents an absence of some concept.

Answer to Question 2

F
Ratio scales do this. Interval scales do capture information about differences in quantities of a concept, however.

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
