I finally looked at several free and commercial fonts, and found that in those, the underline is indeed heavier in the bold faces.

This is from Jacob Poon's report of 2007-10,

I'm not clear on this one.

If the low line is to be used as an underline, and text consists of mixed bold and non-bold characters, should the weight of the underline change?
