Nope it's not a DMV point.
Unreasonable refers to the violation of a qualitative expectation. For example, When I told my daughter that she would have to go to the doctor, she behaved unreasonably by throwing a temper-tantrum. Irrational refers to violation of a quantitative or mathematical expectation. For example, Even though war was imminent, the President decided irrationally to disband the army. There is a lot of crossover between irrational and unreasonable, but at the extremes, those are the differences.
It is an assumption to hypothesis testing. I can not comment on the significance of a violation of these assumptions without knowing how the non-random sample was taken.
