No, if an extra period (or any period, for that matter) begins with a technical foul being administered, the arrow is set after the free throws when the ball is at the disposal of the inbounder. Of course, it is set in the direction of the other team.

As to answering the questions on a test, usually the test question (on true/false) is a direct quote from the book, or is an altered quote. Exceptions usually aren't considered. Therefore, if a direct quote, answer true. If an altered quote, answer false. This, in my opinion, is a fallacy of these tests, since it is not a true test of rules knowledge.

One question I would like to see on the NF test is: "In the last two minutes of a close game, should you swallow your whistle?" Correct answer: "Only when being evaluated."
