For # 55, I took to heart the words "while dribbling" and said False. The dribbler cannot step out of bounds.

For #65, I said True. A general technical foul is always thrown in at the division line. An intentional foul will be thrown in at the site of where the foul was committed (which could be the division line but not likely).

Now you've got several sets of answers... and my odds of getting them correct are still 50-50.
In my opinion these are the correct answers for the test. A large part of successful test taking is having a sense of what the test writer intended the answer of the question to be. While I agree with all of those who have pointed out the problems with 65 (I actually think the other two are rather clear), it is obvious to me that the NFHS intended the question to be True.
