IDB on a Basic Economy (N) fare : fare class vs. status?

Hi guys,

Recently I read about the United idb policy because I booked a Basic Economy(N) fare SFO-LAX. In the policy, United states that a passenger w/ frequent flyer status won't be idb'ed unless all other passengers have status. My questions are:

1. Does *A status count here, or just MileagePlus status?
2. Which one takes priority, fare class of status? Say I have a basic N fare and *G. Do I have a high chance of being idb'ed?

Thanks.
