Is home court advantage determined first by standing and then by W-L record or is it always by W-L record for the playoffs/relegation series?

I'll answer my own question:

For the single-match eliminations, the team with the higher standing is given the home-court advantage. When there is a best-of-three series, the team with the higher standing has the home-court for the first match and for the tie-breaker (if a third game is necessary), and the lower-ranked team has the home-court for the second match.
