Answer #1

If Gini coefficient is 0, there is no income inequality i.e. income distribution is equal and the Lorenz curve will be 45-degree line. This is called the line fo perfect equality.

By intuition, Gini is the difference of area between the 45-degree line and the Lorenz curve and if it is 0, 45-degree line is the Lorenz curve.
