Answer

No and no.

Work Step by Step

Energy is transferred, but not temperature. The temperature changes are not necessarily equal in magnitude. For example, a hot piece of iron thrown into the ocean will experience a much larger change in temperature than the ocean will. For a perfectly insulated system where no heat leaves or enters, the heat lost by the initially hot object all enters the initially cool object.
