A bad convergence IC almost always takes a resistor or two out with it.
Maybe, maybe not. I fix several sets a week and the majority do not have any bad resistors. Some sets are more likely than others to damage resistors when the chips go. Philips and Hitachi sets are most likely to need resistors. Mitsubishi and Toshiba sets rarely do.
