All is correct except for that terminology. It is likely to be the same as the nearest spot to the foul, but doesn't have to be.
Nevadaref makes an important point. The original situation is an intentional foul and made basket. The POI after a made basket would be a throw-in for the team that did not score the goal. It's not just about terminology, it's a fundamental difference in how you would resume play.

I realize that they gave the ball to the correct team, but I just wanted to emphasize that POI is never the way to resume after an intentional foul. It's 2 shots (or 3) and possession of the ball at the spot closest to where the foul occurred.
