Keep in mind that partitions don't always have to be flagged as bootable
(I don't recall ATM the conditions under which this is true). As long as
you know that all are so flagged, that will answer one part of your
need.

Part two can be answered if that boot partition always gets mounted (I
use read-only mount by default). But that only tells which was booted,
not which will be/is being booted.
