What happens to my comment if the parent question/answer is deleted?

Question

Let's say that I leave a comment on a question, responding to an answer that was left.

Can the person who left the answer delete his answer and my comment? I didn't think that it was possible, is it?

Because the parent post is deleted, the comment is as well.

So if there was multiple comment to an answer, and that answer was deleted, all comment will be deleted?

@Mitch yes. But with the difference that if/when the answer is undeleted, the comments will be back as well.
