Answer:

Because of its location on the so-called Pacific Ring of Fire, the Philippines is prone to earthquakes and volcanic eruptions caused by the movement of tectonic plates.
Earthquakes can cause landslides. Volcanoes occur when cracks in the Earth's surface allow hot molten rock to rise up from below the crust. The surface of the Earth can crack and shift during an earthquake above the point where the crust moves. The land can be pushed up or drop along this area.
Sometimes, yes. A few large regional earthquakes (greater than magnitude 6) are considered to be related to a subsequent eruption or to some type of unrest at a nearby volcano. However, volcanoes can only be triggered into eruption by nearby tectonic earthquakes if they are already poised to erupt.
