Hi Kiran,

No you can't create an anonymous method without using delegate keyword and new keyword.

Example
// C# program to illustrate how to
// create an anonymous function
using System;

class GFG {

    public delegate void petanim(string pet);

    // Main method
    static public void Main()
    {

        // An anonymous method with one parameter
        petanim p = delegate(string mypet)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("My favorite pet is: {0}",
                                                mypet);
        };
        p("Dog");
    }
}

Answer is No for both questions, New keyword used to create anonymous type, delegate keyword is use to create anonymous method. Refer below thread for more information.

Anonymous type, as the name suggests, is a type that doesn't have any name. C# allows you to create an object with the new keyword without defining its class. The implicitly typed variable- var is used to hold the reference of anonymous types.
Example: Anonymous Type
var myAnonymousType = new { firstProperty = "First",
secondProperty = 2,
thirdProperty = true
};
