Answers:

1) yes

2)Considering that both are ‘good Muslims,’ they should listen to their parents.  If the marital couple have both aged and marital options have been limited, then the matter would be different. Likewise, if they are on the brinks of adultery (zina), then such a marriage would go through, however, they could be held sinful if parental wishers were not carried out despite parental wishers/concerns being valid.
