    yes to both

    Step-by-step explanation:

    If the sequences are arithmetic then the common difference d, between adjacent terms will be equal.

    35, 32, 29, 26, ...

    d = 32 - 35 = 29 - 32 = 26 - 29 = - 3

    Hence sequence is arithmetic

    - 30, - 40, - 50, - 60, ...

    d = - 40 - ( - 30) = - 40 + 30 = - 10

    d = - 50 - ( - 40) = - 50 + 40 = - 10

    d = - 60 - ( - 50) = - 60 + 50 = - 10

    Hence sequence is arithmetic
