Look at it logically. If that wasn't the case, Team B would not be penalized for their kicking violation.
And yet, if B were to catch the ball while OOB, it would still be a violation on B and A would get the ball but A would lose the arrow. The difference being legally touching the ball in an illegal location vs. illegally touching the ball in a legal location.

Also, we need to remember that this is test season....a lot of the questions lately are likely straight from the test. Once I realized that, I've altered my reply to be more directional than giving conclusive answers. The posters will be a lot better off understanding the rules than being given the answer so they can pass the test.
