Why do some phone calls to my iPhone ring on my iPad

Just updated my 5c to iOS 8 and 9. Why are phone calls ringing on both devices? What happens if I try to answer the iPad? Will that use data?
Can I stop the calls from ringing on the iPad?
Thank you

Why do some phone calls to my iPhone ring on my iPad

Turning off iPhone cellular calls in Settings > FaceTime only affects FaceTime calls. OP will want to do the following:
1. Open Settings > Phone

2. Tap on "calls on other devices"

3. Toggle "allow calls on other devices" OFF or selectively toggle specific devices OFF.

It at all we receive a call on other nearby device can we talk on that. As I tried answering but iPad says "failed". And also checked that we can initiate a call form iPad via iPhone.
