In regards to Q number one. I think it would be much better not to specify passive interface under OSPF as long as your network statement does not include the IP of the interface in question. The reason for that, at least in my head, is that if I were a proctor I might think you don't understand how OSPF works. For question 2, passive should be a norm on interfaces you don't want to form neighboorship or sending routing updates. Make sure you understand that passive works differenty for RIP than for EIGRP.
