Answer 1

Make sure that you have the Publishing Feature enabled in your new subsite, under 'Manage Site Features' in the Site Actions section of your Site Settings page. Once this feature is enabled, you should see the 'Master Page' option in the Look and Feel section and be able to set it to inherit from the parent.

Answer 2

You need to first go to parent site and check if you have activate the publishing feature.

Go to parent site settings > Site collection features under Site Collection Administration section.

There is one feature named "SharePoint Server Publishing Infrastructure", click 'Activate' button.

Then go to subsite site settings > Manage site features and activate a feature called "SharePoint Server Publishing".

Then check if you can see the master page option under look and feel in subsite setting.
