This is incorrect. The idea of using posters is Bruno's, not Hannah's. Hannah starts by saying she would like "some colour on the walls", but then specifies that she is thinking of "artwork" or "paintings", as opposed to posters. "Posters" are made from paper and are generally less expensive than paintings.
This statement is true. Hannah says that Delavigne Corp should start an art collection for the following reasons: purchasing artwork is an investment, the value of art doesn't depreciate, other companies have art collections, and the Delavigne staff would love to have works of art on the walls of the offices. When Hannah says "it's not as if the value of art depreciates over time", she means that during a long period of time the price of art won't go down.
This statement is true. Bruno asks Hannah, "Isn't buying paintings for the office a little frivolous?" A "frivolous (idea)" is silly, extravagant or impractical.
