Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

Using the rule of 70, it can be shown that the poor country will be richer in 60 years. The poor country's GDP will have doubled more than six times over this period, while the rich country's GDP will not have even doubled twice. So while the poor country might have started slowly, it is much richer than the rich country by 60 years later
