Answer to Question 1

FALSE

Answer to Question 2

Marginal product should begin to rise. The reason is that if the firm is already operating beyond the point of diminishing returns this means that marginal product has already begun to fall. So it stands to reason that by cutting back on production the marginal product of labor would rise.
