Yes, it is a dual filament bulb. It is a 315X series bulb. Usually one of the filaments will burn out before the other, but on a rare case both will burn out.

Yes, they almost always come in a pair so replace them together. Any automotive store will stock them. I believe it is a 3156 for brake lights and 3157 for the reverse lights. Or vice versa. Should cost less than $10. Remove the two 8mm bolts that hold the tail light in place, and pull away from the front and it'll come off. Twist the sockets off counter clockwise and there you go.

Walk into autozone and tell them to look it up. I believe it will actually be a 4057 with a grey base. They will install it for free if they are not busy. Should take 2 minutes.
