BThe foreclosing mortgage is paid first, then junior liens in priority order✓ Correct
CAll liens share equally in the sale proceeds

At foreclosure, the foreclosing mortgage is paid from sale proceeds, then any remaining funds pay junior lienholders in their order of priority. Any surplus after all liens are satisfied goes to the former owner. Senior liens survive foreclosure.
