DataContext, Repositories and Unit of Work

I have 2 repositories for 2 different entities and each one has its own private LINQ-to-SQL DataContext.

In addition, I have a service class that must return a result from these 2 repositories.

Question 1 - Should I have a common DataContext for both repositories? (I guess by instantiating a DataContext in the service class and injecting it to the 2 repositories.)

Question 2 - Is that what the Unit of Work is for? Many thanks for the help.
