1. No. Not on federal tax return unless you use part of your house 4 work or use your car 4 work...and I'm not talking about your commute 2 and from.
2. No, those aren't deductible - those are normal living expenses. A car that's used in a business might be deductible (not commuting to and from work - that's not deductible.
