The two correct statements that describe elliptical galaxies are:

  1. They are the most common galaxy type.
  2. They include the universe's largest galaxies.

Additionally, it's worth noting that elliptical galaxies typically contain very little gas and dust, but the second statement regarding the Milky Way is incorrect, as the Milky Way is a spiral galaxy, not an elliptical one.
