Answer to Question 1

The vernal equinox is located on the celestial sphere where the Sun crosses the
celestial equator going from south to north.

Answer to Question 2

The declination of the Sun varies from 23.5N to 23.5S back to 23.5N during 1
year. The starting point for the answer is optional, but you must start at 23.5 or less.
