so let me rephrase my question.

By the book, how would my hypothetical situation be handled?

It's a very poorly written question that begs to be answered FALSE simply because they have not told you WHICH net is being touched while the ball is in EITHER basket.

But the answer is yes, it's BI for players on either TEAM to touch THE net while the ball is on or within THE basket it's attached to. The result could be awarding or cancelling a score.
