Answer #1

False.

Lower interest rates lead to an increase in net exports (Exports – Imports) because it interest Rates are reduced then US will start to invest to other countries where they get higher return, increasing the exports, and increase in Net exports means reduction of Trade Deficit. So Trade Deficit will not widen rather it will shorten.
