Answer 1

This statement is testing comprehension of the legal concept of a "Power of Attorney". It is indeed true that adults aged 18 and older, possessing the mental capacity to make decisions, have the right to authorize another person to make legal decisions on their behalf in the future. This aligns with widely-accepted legal doctrines regarding Power of Attorney in many jurisdictions. The authorized person (known as an "attorney-in-fact") can make legal decisions on a range of matters specified by the person granting Power of Attorney (known as the "principal"), usually when the principal is physically or mentally incapable of doing so themself.
