Explain why an expectation of Central Bank official rate hikes would cause bond price to fall?
The price of bonds is inversely related to interest rates. If interest rates rise, the value of existing bonds will decline since the coupon rate available on newly issued debt will be higher due to the increase in interest rates. The price of existing bonds will drop in price until the bond provides a yield similar to comparable newly issued debt.

How are bond prices affected when the Federal Reserve lowers the interest rate?
When the Federal Reserve lowers interest rates, the value of outstanding bonds will increase. The increase in the value of bonds is due to the market price of the bonds adjusting to reflect the lower interest rates available on new bonds. Investors with bond holdings enjoy an increase in the value of their holdings when the Fed cuts rates. However, new investors in bonds will receive a lower rate of interest and if the Fed later raises rates, bond investors will experience a decrease in the market value of their bonds.

If two bonds have the same maturity the same yield to maturity and the same level of risk the bonds should they sell for the same price regardless of the bond's coupon rate?
if two bonds offer the same duration and yield, then an investor should look at their levels of convexity. if one bond has greater convexity, it is less affected by interest rate changes. also, bonds with higher convexity will have higher price than bonds with lower convexity regardless whether interest rates rise or fall. Ergo, investors will have to pay more with greater convexity due to the bond's lesser sensitivity to interest rate changes.
