A trade deficit is said to occur when the value of a country's imports exceed the value of its exports, that is a country is buying more goods and services than it is selling.
On the other hand a trade surplus is said to occur when the value of a country's exports exceed the value of its imports, that is a country is buying lesser goods and services than it is selling.

Hi, want to check on the q2 for BY
Any country that moves to trade surplus from trade deficit in the next year is placed under Positive rating, while any country moving to trade deficit from trade surplus is placed under Negative rating. If there is no change, the country is placed under Neutral rating.
Initially BY has Export > Import (Trade Surplus)
in 2008, import will increase by 10% to 1120*1.1 = 1232
Hence Import vs Export = 1232 vs 1210 --> Import > Export = trade deficit
BY changed from TS to TD is on the positive rating --> isnt it the answer should be yes?

The colored portion above mean the same TS to TD, so it would get negative rating
