FED Rules

QB in the pocket has no bearing. What matters is where the hold was committed. Under all-but-one enforcement, the basic spot for a loose ball play is the previous spot. A penalty committed by the offense behind the basic spot is the 'one'. This is enforced from the spot of the foul.

(b) while the ball is thrown in the air
Same enforcement as above, if the foul was committed behind the basic spot it's enforced from the spot of the foul. If the foul was committed in advance of the basic spot it's enforced from the basic spot (previous spot).

(c) after a receiver makes a catch.
After the pass is caught we have a running play. The basic spot for fouls committed during the running portion of this play will be the end of the run, with the exception of fouls committed by the offense behind the basic spot, which are enforced from the spot of the foul.
