Yes and Yes.

The database file and rollback journal or WAL file are all encrypted.
Actually, in the rollback journal and WAL file, the meta-data is not
encrypted, just the page images that will be written back into the
database.

Transient indexes and materializations of views and subqueries are not
encrypted.  I recommend you set "PRAGMA temp_store=MEMORY" so that
those objects are never written to disk.
