Answer to Question 1

Product X and Product Y: complements.
Product X and Product Z: substitutes.

Answer to Question 2

Yes, MPC plus MPS will always equal one. The reason is that there are only two things that an individual can do with income spend it or save it. As such, for each dollar of additional income, a certain percentage will be used for consumption and the remaining percentage will be devoted to saving.
