Answer to Question 1

True

Answer to Question 2

The comparative fit index (CFI) provides an index showing the fit of a model relative to a null model (one that would theorize no relationships among variables). The CFI can range from 0 to 1 . Higher values are associated with good fit. While it's impossible to give a single CFI cutoff that distinguishes good from bad fitting models, a model of moderate complexity (12 < m <30) with a sample size of 200 or more should produce CFI values greater than 0.95 to be a candidate for good fit. As more variables or a very large sample size is involved, the expectation drops slightly (CFI  0.93). In contrast, with samples below 200 and noncomplex models (12 or fewer variables), CFI values of 0.98 or greater provide evidence of good fit.
