The two correct answers are:

  1. They both are models of the solar system.

  2. They both show the position of Earth relative to the Sun.

The geocentric model places the Earth at the center, while the heliocentric model has the Sun at the center, so the statements about both showing Earth at the center and both showing the Sun at the center are incorrect.
