From the Summary of Penalties for Fouls:

6. Multiple Foul:
a. One free throw for each foul:
(1) No try involved.
(2) Successful or unsuccessful two-point try or tap.
(3) Successful three-point try or tap.
b. Two free throws for each foul:
(1) Intentional or flagrant foul.
(2) Unsuccessful three-point try or tap.
Plus ball for throw-in if intentional or flagrant.


So you have it partially right, but there are many different scenarios. Suffice to say that multiple fouls by themselves are uncommon. With that in mind, a) is probaly more common than b0. To meet the criteria for b) would be the least likely scenario, but would result in two FTs.

As for common fouls, I have always assumed that the penalty listed also implied that a team was in the bonus. Can't see giving FTs when under 7 fouls.
