a. Since Bob's Bodily Injury Liability coverage limit is only $25,000, he is responsible for paying the remaining $15,000 out of his own pocket. Therefore, Bob has to pay $15,000.

b. Bob's insurance will pay up to his Bodily Injury Liability coverage limit of $25,000. Therefore, Bob's insurance will pay $25,000.
