Please provide your rulings on the two situations and a rule reference NFHS rules.

Part (b) is NOT "in the act of shooting," and, honestly, I 'm not sure whether part (a) is or not.
Either way, that doesn't affect the administration of the penalties -- which is probably what you are really asking. Count the basket (if it's made) and enforce the foul against A2 (bonus FTs or ball OOB nearest the spot of the foul).
