Yep, that is right, first your body eats its fat then the muscle, when your body fat drops below 8% of your body then it goes for the organs. With muscle that works the following. First your body eats the muscle you can see (like the ones you get from work out) then the fat and then the other muscle (without muscle your body simply falls apart, it holds your bones together) So for most people it LOOKS like muscle and fat go away at the same time. So it will get to your muscle before the fat is gone. but not to all of you muscle.
The other point is that you simply cannot live without fat, you need at least 9% body fat, the fat protects your organs and keeps your body temp up. If you wouldnt have no fat, your organs would bump into each other and into your bones. I know that a lot of ana websites say it is possible to live without fat, THIS IS NOT TRUE. Fat has a function (or you body wouldnt make it) and you need it, to a certain degree.

I hope this helps, if I didnt answer your question let me know, I'll give it another shot.
