Answer to Question 1

The long-run Phillips curve is illustrated in the above figure. It is vertical at the natural unemployment rate. The fact that the long-run Phillips curve is vertical means that in the long run there is no tradeoff between inflation and unemployment. In other words, in the long run higher inflation does not decrease unemployment nor does low inflation increase unemployment.
