its a tie/slide/bend but it depends on the bar before

Answer 14

Yup i agree with @Blink-182
Its a tie.

Answer 15

It is indeed a tie, hold the note for the time value of both notes combined.

I do suggest if you're gonna go on and search for tabs online you check out: ultimateguitar.com. The tabs will be more clear and more accurate. If you're interested, I can give you some tips on navigating the site and free software you can install to view the downloadable tabs from the site (that you can playback and listen to on your computer).

In short, when you browse for a tab. Choose the tab with 5 stars (or highest) and highest number of ratings. Chords tabs will give you just the chords/lyrics. Tabs will give you similar to what you posted above. Guitar Pro Tab Files are what I can further explain.

Good luck with your musical ventures,
