Here are the answers to the given questions above.
1. The answer would be TRUE. It is true that to sign a comparative adjective in ASL, you would add the sign for the suffix -ER after the descriptive word is signed. 
2. Classifier in ASL is signs that are used to represent general categories or classes of things. These are designated hand shapes and/or rule-grounded body pantomime used to represent nouns and verbs. The answer would be option B.
3.  To indicate possession, hand shape should be "B" handshape. This is changing the handshape from an index finger to a flat hand (a version of a B palm); the palm should face toward the person or thing that's doing the possessing.
Hope these help.
