Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

Both events are seen as a sudden brightening due to mass transfer onto a compact object, but for a nova, the material falls on a white dwarf, and the event is visual. For X-ray bursters, the target is a smaller neutron star, and the energy is X-rays instead of visible light.
