IMO, yes to both, unless the ability were specifically defined not to be magical.

The natural ability to turn invisible is not effected.
It is similar to the situation of having a superability as a nat. ability, it can't be negated by 'negate super-abilities' powers.
(note: natural invisibility powers are equivalent to invis.: simple in effects.)

Having a natural ability to cast 'spell magic', the spell effects are blocked, as per the AMC rules.
If the effects are produced by a natural ability, and not described as magic, then they follow the rules according to them being nat. abilities.
May you be blessed with the ability to change course when you are off the mark.
Each question should be give the canon answer 1st, then you can proclaim your house rules.

The natural ability to turn invisible at will is stated to be the same as the spell invisibility simple.

While a natural ability of a Supernatural race it still a magic affect. So will be affected.
The Clones are coming you shall all be replaced, but who is to say you have not been replaced already.

Soon my army oc clones and winged-monkies will rule the world but first, must .......

I may debate canon and RAW, but the games I run are highly house ruled. So I am not debating for how I play but about how the system works as written.
