Answer to Question 1

If they disagree 35 times out of 90, then they agree 55 times out of 90 (55/90), and the interrater reliability coefficient is .61 . This is a moderate correlation coefficient indicating that although there is some interrater reliability, it could be stronger.

Answer to Question 2

False
