tl;dr version:
A Differential backup is always based off the most recent completed
successful Full backup of that Job at the time the Differential was
started (or possibly at the time it was scheduled, I'm not 100% certain
of that detail).  An Incremental backup is always based off the most
recent completed successful backup of that Job at *any* level.
