Answer to Question 1

A reduction in i (assume zero inflation) will cause investment to increase for reasons discussed before. This causes an increase in Z and Y. There is a second effect now embedded in the IS curve. As i falls, the demand for the domestic currency drops causing a depreciation. This depreciation causes NX to rise and demand to rise even more. So, there are two components of demand that now change as i changes: I and NX.
