First of all, yes - signal TD because you are telling folks that B crossed the goal line with the ball in his possession.
I think as a referee, you would have to throw the flag for a RTP on this play. Your mechanics would keep you focused on the passer and you would not know whether the pass was complete, incomplete or intercepted. One of your crew could convince you to pick it up if the hit was after the interception and it was a legal hit on a potential tackler.
If the hit was after the interception though as you originally stated, I don't think it would be likely that you would have roughing the passer. If the pass is complete or incomplete, there is no reason to hit the passer. If it is intercepted and the QB is ready to participate in the play, he is legal game.
