Answer to Question 1

False

Answer to Question 2

A country's balance of trade is the total value of its exports minus the total value of its imports over a specific time period. If a country's balance of trade is favorable, it means that the country's exports exceed its imports. If it is unfavorable, the country is importing more than it is exporting.
