Answer 1

I. False

II. True

Step-by-step explanation:

Economic freedom refers to the human right to own and control private property and decide how your labor should be used. When Economic freedom exists, people are able to contribute freely to the economy in a way that they prefer in a stable environment that supports their ventures.

Evidence has shown that in countries where people have the liberty to engage in business as they see fit, the Economies grew faster and had a higher average GDP per capita than countries that did not.

This is why developed countries (usually have higher economic freedom) are better off than a lot of developing countries where several factors such as corruption hinder economic freedom.
