In the line of business/others: No.

I think that line is a little incorrect. Many people are corrupt even when they are in line of business/others.
Government Sectors are most vulnerable to corruption.

Yup, but their activities are usually well within the legal framework. Businesspeople are usually well aware of what is within the legal framework and what is not. They make sure that they are within it. Therefore, legally, what they do cannot directly be called corruption.
Whereas, political people are bluntly corrupt.
That's the major difference between the two.

Usually. Best example is the countries in the indian subcontinent.
China is an exception.

It's ingrained in the human psyche. Power corrupts. Even if the businessmen had the power to bend laws he'd use it to his own advantage.
EMO123:
power does corrupt the person because the think that superior and they corrupt themselves
***exam***:
ohk i think power doesnt corrupt !!
its the corrupt person coming into power abuses it !!
eg : a street cleaner if corrupt cannot show it but when he becomes a politician or so ! he will show his corrupt by misusing the power
a person with strong value will never become corrupt in with all the power in his hands !!
