Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

A price ceiling is a legally determined maximum price that sellers may charge for a good or service. A price floor is a legally determined minimum price that sellers may receive for a product or service. To have an effect on a market, price ceilings must be set below the competitive equilibrium price, and price floors must be set above the competitive equilibrium price.
