No for both, Rule 4-4-6 and 9-9-1. The ball is still in the backcourt until both of the dribbler's feet and the ball touch in the frontcourt. Since team control has not been established in the frontcourt, there cannot be a backcourt violation.

When B1, standing in the FC, touches the ball it gains FC status. (4-4-2) Furthermore, this was not during a dribble from BC to FC (as 4-4-6 covers) since A1 was not crossing the line.
