True, because perimeter is 2L+2W, and area is LW, and because they both have the same Length (L), whichever one has the higher Width (W) will have the larger area and perimeter.

For Example
L=10 W=5
Perimeter = 30
Area = 50

L=10 W=6
Perimeter = 32
Area = 60

How does the perimeter of rectangle change when the length of side is decreased by 1 unit?

It depends on what side is being decreased All rectangles have perimeter 2l+2w where l is the length and w is the with if the length is decreased by 1 then the rectangle will have perimeter 2(l-1)+2w, similarly if the with is decreased by 1 then it will have perimeter 2l+2(w-1).
