Yes. See the PS1 & PS2 Compatibility section above on Backward Compatibility.

Yes, but don’t expect anything fancy or new. Your old PS2 games will look and play exactly as they do on your regular PlayStation. A few old PlayStation games won’t run on the PS2. Sony claims these weren’t designed to meet official PlayStation specs, but rest assured the vast majority of old PlayStation software does run on the PS2. One interesting note: there have been rumors that Sony is working on a Bleem-like emulator for the PS2 that will boost the resolution and possibly the frame rate of old PlayStation games. However, Sony has not officially announced any plans or product along these lines.
