Answer to Question 1

When the Fed buys a government security, both the monetary base and the quantity of money increase. As reflected by the money multiplier, the increase in the quantity of money exceeds the increase in the monetary base.

Answer to Question 2

An inflation that starts from an initial increase in aggregate demand is a demand-pull inflation.
