Answer 2

Hi C.T,

This is defined in MSF for CMMI Process Improvement. You can right click "Work Items" node and then Team Project Process Guidance.

Blocked  : Indicates if progress on implementing the requirement has been blocked. The values for this field are Yes or No. If an Issue work item has been opened to track the blocking problem, a link should be made to that work item as well.
 

Closed
A closed requirement is no longer being worked on. Requirements are closed when they are rejected, or when they are successfully implemented, verified, and validated.

Best Regards,
Ruiz
