For the questions you answered, you were correct. The information source from where I got this does not list New York for question #1 - don't know why

Who are the only members of the Hall of Fame that have nothing to do with baseball?
We often hear baseball fans ask the following trivia question: "Who are the only members of the Hall of Fame that have nothing to do with baseball?" The supposed answer is "Bud Abbott and Lou Costello." Actually, that answer isn't quite correct. Abbott and Costello are not members of the National Baseball Hall of Fame, though the comedy duo is featured in our museum.
For a complete list of Hall of Famers, please check out our Hall of Famer Lists web page.
Furthermore, Abbott and Costello most certainly have a lot to do with baseball as they made popular one of the most famous and beloved comedy routines of all time: "Who's on First?"
