Answer 1

Does null inherit from Object as well in C#?

Unlike in some other systems, null is not defined in terms of a class or an instance. On the contrary, it signifies the absence of any instance, and it doesn't have a type. It is implicitly converted to whatever reference type fits the context. The widest conversion (i.e. when no other can be inferred) is to object. But still, null is not generally of type object.

Answer 2

null is not an object - it is a language keyword that denotes the lack of an object reference.
