Answer to Question 1

The Phillips curve was observed as an inverse relationship between the rate of unemployment and the rate of inflation. As unemployment decreased, the rate of inflation increased, and vice versa. At higher levels of unemployment, it is thought that you could buy more employment with a moderate amount of inflation. At relatively low rates of unemployment, however, further efforts to reduce the unemployment rates would come at the expense of higher and higher rates of inflation.

Answer to Question 2

True
