There is an income threshold for the VA non-service-connected disability pension. So, it depends upon how much you receive from Social Security whether you would be eligible for any amount of the disability pension. The income threshold was/is $10,929.00, but should be increasing in December 2007. Check out the va.gov website for more info.

Yes, if you qualify under both programs you can receive Social Security disability or retirement compensation and VA benefits at the same time without a reduction in benefits for either.
