Answer 1

IoT is a special case of embedded.

Answer 2

How is IoT different from Embedded (or are they completely synonyms?)

IMHO, basically nothing. But Embedded can for example be Windows in the ATM. IoT is perhaps more about portable things, such as watches, keys, pillows. Although there may be a refrigerator, for example ... Also with Windows.
In general, IoT is more colleagues for controllers, even if it’s an arduino. Embedded is a regular axis, but with some kind of flair for working with external hardware.
