Was Boaz a family member to Ruth?

We know very little of Kilion (Ruth's husband) from the narrative and certainly not enough to know if he and Boaz were close friends. However, since Boaz was very familiar with Naomi, Kilion's father, it stands to reason that they were probably friendly, but there is no certainty in this.

Ruth 3:7 And after Boaz had eaten and drunk, and his heart was cheerful, he went to lie down at the end of the heap of grain; and she came softly, uncovered his feet, and lay down.

Is Rahab the Mother-in-law of Ruth according to Matthew chapter 1 verse 5 in the NIV bible?

Rahab was the mother of Boaz by Salmon, Boaz had Ruth as his wife and begat Obed. Although this is stated as such in the NIV, the KJV is much clearer. The record is seen also in Ruth, regarding her marriage to Boaz and having son Obed. Rahab, the harlot, was in the ancestry of Boaz, of David and of Jesus Christ. This was because she turned to believe in the true God of Israel, while the rest of her city rejected Him.
