Two trainees are practicing driving along a highway in a driving school car. One day, trainee A practices in an east-west direction, with east being positive. Starting from point A, the driving record (in kilometers) is: +15, -2, +5, -1, +10, -3, -2, +12, +4, -5, +6. Another trainee, B, also starts from point A, practicing in a north-south direction, with north being positive. The driving record is: -17, +9, -2, +8, +6, +9, -5, -1, +4, -7, -8.
(1) Calculate separately, at the end of the practice, on which side of point A and how far from point A are trainees A and B?
(2) If the car consumes a liters of fuel per kilometer, determine who consumes less fuel from start to finish?
