RE: Bug Fixing Priority
 
My definitions would be

A - High priority low severity bug
B- High priority High severity bug
C-Low priority High severity bug

So, the order of bug fixing should be

1.B
2.A
3.C

If possible, we can ask to fix B & A at the same time, as the issue 'A' will take less time to fix.
