Answer to Question 1

The problem with allowing null values in a table is that the null value is open to three different interpretations. First, a null value in a field may mean that no value is appropriate for the field for the given record. Second, a null value may mean that the value of that field is known to be blank for the given record. Third, a null value may mean that the value of that field is not known for the given record.

Answer to Question 2

TRUE
