There are 3 integers, a, b, and c in that order. Are these integers consecutive?
1) a=c-2
2) b>a

There are 3 integers, a, b, and c in that order. Are these integers consecutive?
1) a=c-2
2) b>a

The words "in that order" are a little confusing.
Are you suggesting that a < b < c ?

We can modify the original condition and the question. In order for integers to be consecutive, they need to be a, b(=a+1), c(=a+2). Hence, the difference between c and a needs to be 2. Thus, the answer is yes for the condition 1). The correct answer is A.
