SELECT 'Answer: NO. Once COMMIT is executed, changes are permanent and cannot be rolled back.' AS '';
SELECT '3. What happens during crash?' AS '';
SELECT 'Answer: Any uncommitted transactions are automatically rolled back. Committed changes persist.' AS '';
SELECT '4. Why transactions ensure consistency?' AS '';
SELECT 'Answer: Transactions ensure either ALL operations succeed (COMMIT) or NONE take effect (ROLLBACK), maintaining data integrity.' AS '';
SELECT '5. Why both updates must be inside same transaction?' AS '';
SELECT 'Answer: To ensure atomicity - both amount_paid AND balance must update together. If one fails, both roll back, preventing inconsistency.' AS '';
