Is income in respect of a decedent taxable?

Yes. Death does not get you out of paying income taxes in the United States. I do several returns a year for deceased people. This is called a Decedents Return. If the person dies on January 1st they have to file a return for the entire year if they had income over the threshold to file. The Administrator or whomever is in charge of the Estate is responsible to file and pay the any taxes due from the Estate.

If you are the beneficiary of compensation do you have to pay off the deceased debts?

The estate of the decedent is responsible for any debts owed by the decedent. Those debts must be paid BEFORE any distribution is made to the beneficiaries. The debts were incurred while the decedent was alive. The funeral expenses, by law, must be paid before any distribution can be made to the beneficiaries. It is the responsibility of the estate fiduciary to settle the estate by paying the debts of the decedents. The beneficiaries receive any assets that remain after those debts have been paid. See related question link.
