You boot from an ISO by mounting the ISO in the VM, using the "Storage" settings panel.

Yes, that is how you mount the ISO. The ISO acts as a virtual CD-ROM which you can boot the VM from.

Therefore, I don't have to indicate whether the master or slave .. Simply mount ISO on CD-ROM .. start the operating system and therefore selected the tool ....."Trinity Recue Disk"..Am I right?

I don't know anything about the Trinity Rescue Disk, I will not address questions about that - I am sure there are websites which deal with it.
You mount the ISO in the virtual CD-ROM drive created by the VM. You make sure that the CD comes first in the boot order. It isn't your concern whether that drive is connected to SATA, or master or slave IDE controllers - just start the VM.
