In negative statements, we use 'NOT' after 'IS' or 'ARE'. For example, 'He is NOT happy' or 'They are NOT here'. Therefore, the correct choice is 'after'.

In question 1, 'Is' is correct for asking about a singular subject, while 'isn't' is the negative form. In question 2, 'Are' is used for plural subjects, and 'aren't' is its negative form. Thus, the correct choices fit the context.
