Abolitionists tried to change peoples ideas about tolerating slavery true or false?

True. In the run-up to the Civil War, most people in the North were not especially outraged by the continuation of slavery in its original heartlands. Partly because it yielded the sizable cotton revenues, they saw it as normal or 'natural'. But the extension of slavery into the new Western territories did not seem 'natural'; it also signalled the danger of the South becoming rich enough to break away and form a separate nation, taking the cotton revenues with them. The Abolitionists, led by Lloyd Garrison, insisted on outright abolition of all slavery. In due course, this happened, largely because Lincoln had used the Emancipation Proclamation as an effective but unusual war measure that could not be rescinded after the war.

Why did the Northern and Southern states have different ideas about slavery?

The South needed cheap, unskilled labor to cultivate crops such as tobacco and cotton. Both are quite labor-intensive (I can attest to the work involved in putting up tobacco--not a fun summer job). The North had an economy that was more heavily based on manufacturing and did not have the same need for unskilled labor.
