Classes A and B each have 40 students taking a mathematics exam (total score 100 points). After the exam, classes A and B adjust their scores using $y_1 = 0.8x_1 + 20$ and $y_2 = 0.75x_2 + 25$ respectively, where $x_1, x_2$ represent the original exam scores of classes A and B, and $y_1, y_2$ represent the adjusted scores of classes A and B. The average adjusted scores for both classes are 60 points, with adjusted standard deviations of 16 and 15 points respectively. Select the correct options.
(1) Every student in class A has an adjusted score not lower than their original score
(2) The average original score of class A is higher than that of class B
(3) The standard deviation of original scores in class A is higher than that in class B
(4) If student A from class A has a higher adjusted score than student B from class B, then A's original score is higher than B's original score

A school's midterm examination has 29 test takers, and all scores are different. After statistics, the scores at the 25th, 50th, 75th, and 95th percentiles are 41, 60, 74, and 92 points respectively. Later, it was discovered that the scores needed adjustment. The scores of the top 15 students with higher scores should each be increased by 5 points, while the remaining students' scores remain unchanged. Assuming the adjusted scores at the 25th, 50th, 75th, and 95th percentiles are $a$, $b$, $c$, and $d$ points respectively, which of the following options is the tuple $(a, b, c, d)$?
