Yes, the RAM speed is based entirely off the FSB speed, so I would call that a relation. Now you can run the RAM at a speed faster than the FSB on almost all modern motherboards, but you can NEVER run it slower.

Yes.
Your FSB determines your max RAM speed.
Setting a FSB speed is related directly to the speed grade of memory that a system must use. The memory bus connects the northbridge and RAM, just as the front side bus connects the CPU and northbridge. Often, these two buses must operate at the same frequency. Increasing the front-side bus to 170 MHz means also running the memory at 170 MHz in most cases.
