(a)double foul for A's illegal forward pass and B37's pass interference.
(b)Team A is penalized five yard from the 40 yard line plus loss of down; second down from the 35 yard line.
(c)the clock starts on the snap
(d)No foul by B37; defensive pass interference cannot be called on an illegal forward pass play

(f)None of the above

CANADIAN RULING:
QB's running and forward pass actions are legal. Flag on B37 for DPI. The flag will be declined (automatically, by the Referee), and the TD will count.
