Answer to Question 1

If the minimum wage is set below the equilibrium wage, then the law has no impact on the labor market equilibrium wage and quantity.

Answer to Question 2

The reason is that revenue could move in either direction. What is crucial in determining whether it will rise or fall is dependent upon the elasticity of demand at the point where price is increased.
