RULING:

In both (a) and (b) A1 is responsible for the contact.

In (a), B1's position is legal if A1 has been given two steps prior to contact.

In (b), since the position of B1 is legal when A1 HAS THE BALL, the contact is charging by A1.
Yup. (a) is a screening play governed by time/distance. (b) is not. It's an LGP block/charge play.
