Answer 1

The storage of the object pointed to by b —?that is, the object of type Bar —?is allocated on the heap.

However, f1 isn’t part of that object. Instead, it’s a local object that’s created when a function is called (the function being the constructor to Bar, but that’s irrelevant). And local objects are all allocated on the call stack, without exception.

(Nathan’s answer correctly points out that C++ doesn’t have a concept of stack or heap storage; the explanation above concerns implementations of C++, not the language definition.)
