The official said no, because it was a player control foul. Hypothetically reversing the foul - If A2's screen is not legal and he commits the foul, Does B1 shoot a one-and-one if it is A's 8th team foul?

A has the ball on the baseline for a throw-in. As the thrower starts the throw-in, he realizes the defense will intercept the pass, so he holds onto the ball. Him momentum carries him forward and he steps on (not over) the line. Is this a violation? The official said yes.

Thanks!
I agree with the other answers posted, but let me add:

1) If the play was during a throw-in (and was in HS play), and the foul was on A2 it would NOT be a team control foul. (In NCAA it would be a team control foul during both a throw-in and "normal" play.)

2) If any part of the inbounder touches any part of the court inbounds, the inbounder has violated -- the player could be "on the line" and "over the line" (in some fans' terminology) at the same time.
