Answer 1

Therefore, the answer is A.

Answer 2

The true statement among the choices is B.) The decisions of the Supreme Court can be reviewed by the President.

Even though the Supreme Court is the highest court of the government, its court decisions can still be reviewed by the President. This is because the President has the power of Clemency which was granted to him by the United States Constitution, Article 2.

Most common clemency powers used by the President are pardon and commutation.
