Answer to Question 1

C
If the larger mean corresponds to the mean that was predicted to be larger, then the result is in the correct direction. The value of related t is always positive

Answer to Question 2

D
The critical value of t depends of all of these things, whether the design is an independent groups design or a repeated measures design.
