Rental car liability insurance across state lines

Rental car liability insurance across state lines - Blue car on parking lot

I understand that Rental Car companies are required to provide the state minimum liability insurance in all states except California.

What minimum liability do these companies provide?

Is it the minimum in the state where the rental originated or the state in which an incident may occur with the rental car.

Assuming the renter declines the Supplemental Liability policy offered by rental car companies, the renter doesn't have automobile insurance, the renter doesn't have a non-owner policy in their name:

  1. If a rental originates in Nevada, does it comply with the California financial responsibility law when driven in the state of California?

  2. Does the rental comply with the financial responsibility law in cases like this - Rental originates in New Jersey and the vehicle is driven in Vermont?

Basically when the state in which the vehicle is being driven has a higher limit than the originating state?
