Your Answer for Question 1:
The C preprocessor runs before the compiler and replaces instances of variables with their #define value if the variable is defined this way. It takes a C program and outputs a C program. IF it were a seperate step on figure 3.21 then it would be the step before the compiler. 

Your Answer for Question 2:
If this were the case then the process of compilation would be much faster. This would allow a C programmer to not be as hindered by the speed of compilation as he possibly could be if the steps were separated.
