Hey, sorry for the late answer but just in case some one else needs help on the problem here it is.

Answer:

"the sample is biased because it does not represent the population." and "The question is biased toward a Yes response."

Explanation:

The sample is biased because they people being surveyed are shopping at a sporting shop so most of them are going to support it.

The question is biased because it says "outdated" and "modern" to try to get people to support it.

I took this quiz and this is correct :) hope I can help some one.
