When the positive integer \(x\) is divided by the positive integer \(y,\) the quotient is 2 and the remainder is \(z.\) When \(x\) is divided by the positive integer \(a,\) the quotient is 3 and the remainder is \(b.\) Is \(z > b?\)

(1) The ratio of \(y\) to \(a\) is less than 3 to 2.
(2) The ratio of \(y\) to \(a\) is greater than 2 to 3.
