This is a true statement. Philip asks Kevin if he wants to "grab a drink", and Kevin declines, saying "No, I'm afraid I can't make it. I've got a relative coming in from Ireland." When Kevin says "I can't make it" he is expressing that he can't go to the bar because he has a family member arriving from Ireland.
This statement is not true. On the contrary, Kevin says that his relative is "coming in from Ireland", which means that they are arriving from Ireland, or visiting America.
Kevin is not expecting a visit from his parents (his mother and father), but rather from one of his cousins. In English, the term "parent" refers only to one's mother or father, and not to a general relative.
This is true. Kevin tells Philip that one of his relatives is "coming in from Ireland". The phrasal verb "to come in" from somewhere indicates that someone is arriving (from somewhere). Kevin says that a relative is coming in, and later specifies that it is his cousin.
