Question #1
You have the worst possible full house, but even so, there are a lot worse hands than can call. No better will fold though, so 1/2 - 2/3 pot seems OK.
Your small bet looks like a bluff stab, so might even get paid off by two-pair hands as well as straights.
Question #2
At NL 2, I would never fold, above NL 25 I would consider it. Not because of the amount of money involved, but because this is such a poor spot for anyone to bluff.

I was surprised no-one else responded.
I hope someone else does, since this is an interesting spot, and I'm no Hold'em expert!

Bizarre hand? Post it in Hand of the Day!!

I would Cbet river around 40c for value and fold to a raise. I expect to get this way a little bit more value against a random villain on NL2. it would be insane if villain would raise with worse and you have indeed the weakest full house possible.
