Answer:

1) False

when the inflation is lower than expected, the real interest rate will be higher, since

real interest rate = Nominal interest rate - inflation.

2) Gains

In case of unexpected lower inflation the lender gains and the borrower loses.This is because real value of the loan increases due to lower inflation.

3) Loses

In case of unexpected lower inflation the lender gains and the borrower loses.This is because real value of the loan increases due to lower inflation.
