This is a false statement. The presentation contains pictures of Philip's secretary, but this doesn't seem to be planned by Philip; he seems very confused and embarrassed by the photos and concludes that there has been a "mix-up". Showing the photos is certainly not intentional.
This is a true statement. The presentation Philip shows appears to be titled "Doris and Bernie's vacation photos, Greece 2004". This is clearly not the presentation on sales that Philip is expecting! Philip concludes that there has been "some sort of a mix-up", which means that he has shown the wrong presentation by mistake.
This is a true statement. Philip says that "sales is like a game: there are winners, like me; and losers, like your professor". A "loser" is someone who has failed. This means that Philip insults Professor Williams in front of his students!
