southern
less - populous

Explanation:

For the first question: The New Jersey Plan proposed equal congressional representation for each state, unlike the Virginia Plan which favored representation by population. The Connecticut Plan was a compromise, and New Hampshire was not a namesake of a core convention plan.
For the second question: The New Jersey Plan's equal representation benefited smaller, less-populous states, as it prevented larger states from dominating Congress.

Answer:

1. New Jersey
2. less-populous
