yes.

no.
it is fine grained, but in the diffs there is:

VACUUM and ANALYSE do not update pg_class the same way for the
reltuples/relpages: for ex VACUUM is accurate for index, and ANALYZE is fuzzy
so if you issue a vacuum you have exact values, if you then run ANALYZE you
may change them to be less precise.
